Odoo Studio - Visibility Custom Group Need External ID (V14)

Question

I have an inventory transfer transaction type that I want to restrict to a custom group of employees (To Remove items from a Quarantine area) I created a group under settings, Users and Companies, Groups.

I have a group called Inventory / Quality

When putting a "visible" condition to the validate button in the particular workflow I get the following:

"Only groups with an external ID can be used here.  Please choose another group or assign manually an external ID to this group"

I am not sure

Thanks

The message is a bit misleading, because (1) you can't manually assign a
