NetBrain currently provides no supported way to reassign ownership of files such as maps, intents, reports, and QApps from one user account to another. When an organization changes username conventions, offboards employees, or otherwise retires accounts, files owned by the old account can become difficult to locate or entirely inaccessible, including private QApps and files tied to former employee accounts. This enhancement proposes an administrator-facing capability to transfer ownership of a user's files, individually or in bulk, to a different active account. Organizations that periodically restructure account naming or experience staff turnover would benefit from a reliable way to preserve institutional knowledge and avoid permanent loss of work product tied to retired accounts.
