Draft review/approval routes without sending

Using RQM 6.0.3 with iFix 9 on Linux I observed that you cannot add and save an individuals name to a review/approval route without immediately
sending them a notification of a task.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The IBM Engineering team has carefully reviewed this idea, and based on our understanding, it does not fit our near-term plans. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.

    The specific request would be to have some kind of "Start" button or some other method of allowing a review or approval to be created and filled with users without actually sending them notifications.

    We would like the ability to pre-populate our review/approvals ahead of time when we're still developing the tests.

    Desired Tool behavior: The ability to add in and save completed drafts of a review or approval route, without immediately sending any users the request to review/approve the object.

    Use Case: At the start of a project the appropriate people can be identified as the reviewers. Their names can then be entered in to a review. When the object is done being developed, the author can press "send" and the notification that there is a new object to review will be sent to them. This would allow a project team delegate to fill in all the appropriate people ahead of time. The author will then only have to press "go" to send the request for review.

    Could you please give more details about the use case and what you would like the tool behavior to be?
