    We have created a form and simple approval workflow. As an admin I can go into a form that was submitted via the inbox and reassign the approval workflow to a new user. However, people that I share this form with that have contribute rights cannot see this option. Is there a way to provide someone that is not the admin/creator of a form or workflow the rights to be able to reassign a workflow?

    I also having this problem. While collaborators could not reassign task in the inbox, even editing permissions are allowed on inbox, table and workflow. Thank you.
