Please improve the "substitute users" functionality

Thanks for the feedback, I've recorded it to our internal development tracker. The substitute user functionality unfortunately hasn't been a development focus lately so cannot promise any enhancements in the near future. I personally agree that there are many potential improvements that could be made.

Hello, I would like to add something additional here. It would be great if the substitute user really had the same rights. Currently, the substitute user, for example, does not have the rights to trigger a status change if the rights are tied to the assigned person.

Yes, to me it doesn't make sense that the substitute user doesn't 'inherit' the permissions unless they have them through the default permissions already. That doesn't make sense to me, since if I am naming a substitute user, I am taking responsibility for granting access to the substitute user(s).

I agree, especially in status changes, permissions should be inherited. Currently I see no other workaround than "hardcoding" the Substitute User onto an object type "user account" and accessing the substitute user that way thus forcing the user to specify the substitute twice in different locations, which is rather unfortunate, especially because the rest of the m-files default substitute function works really well.
