## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  create a work-package custom user field and add it to a type
    
2.  create a work-package with that type
    
3.  set a user to that custom field
    
4.  deactivate that user (lock permamently)
    
5.  try to move that work-package into another project
    

### What is the buggy behavior?

*   Moving a collection of work-packages fails with an error that this specific work-package cannot be moved because "invalid user"
    
*   Moving a collection of work-package works, when that user is set in Assignee/Responsible
    

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  no error; moving should be possible for custom fields the same as it works with Assignee/Responsible field
