Reassign owner of document?

[tali]

Hello,
is it possible to reassign the owner of documents?
I started to import some documents after setting up paperless-ngx.
Now these documents are owned by the super user and I can't find a way to reassign it to my normal user account I created afterwards.

Just select a document, go to the Permissions tab and change the owner there.
You can also select multiple documents and then change the owner on the Permissions button

Ah, the trick was to disable the "merge permissions" checkbox. With the checkbox enabled (default), it did not change the owner.
