Mass unassign a form/task from all projects when using an expiry date....
Even though a form/tasks has expired, if it is assigned to a project it still remains on the project and can still be raised.
The form/ tasks must be manually unassigned from every project...
Putting this into context, Manually removing 1 form/task from 100 projects is taking approx 5hrs!

Even forms that do not expire need a way to mass unassign.
Absolutely agree with Sarah on this one.
What's the point in having an expiry on a form or task if it does nothing on the projects you've assigned it to?
It would seem that expiring forms removes them from the form configuration page, but it does not remove it from the projects it has been assigned to so those projects can still raise that form. It also doesn’t allow you to perform analysis on that form anymore even if there have been instances raised of it previously.
The delete button (form configuration page) also only works if the form HAS NOT been used on a project, the moment it has the delete button becomes useless.
Can we please have this implemented? I do not have time to go through every single project and remove a task/form from all projects, one after the other - especially as switching in between projects in FV Classic is not as easy as it could be.
