    Hi,

    I build a Workflow that executes when a Case changes owner.

    It seemed to work fine, but for some reasons it gets triggered also when the Customer of the accountid field changes owner.

    When I open the workflow under Start when only "Record is assigned" is checked.

    Is it a bug? Am i doing something wrong?

    This happens because of what is known as cascading rules in CRM. Due to this cascading behaviour the Case changes owner as a result of the parent Account changing owner.

    This behaviour can be modified by customising the Account to Case 1:N relationship. The standard behaviour for this relationship is set to Parental = all Assigns of Account will cascade down to all related child records such as Cases.
