Detach contacts from one user and attach contacts to another.

I need to detach existing contacts from one user and attach those contacts to another user. I don't necessarily want to change ownership.

    You have to change ownership.

    If you don't want it then create a user lookup on contact form and use that lookup to attach and detach.

    Hello,

    You can't have empty owner on the contacts.

    What you could do it to assign the contacts to a dummy user to store them somewhere and detach them from the wanted user.
