Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Ben, I don't disagree with the fact this is a defect. It is and it's not a problem in 7.5.1 nor in 7.5.1.1... although I have no reference to how it was fixed since so much was redesigned in 7.5.1. My point earlier was normally you wouldn't setup a lifecycle this way because even if you could see the policies, by manually removing the transition rule, the policies would execute and the asset would transition to this state and back to the draft state automatically. If I am missing something... let's discuss and if necessary walk through the customer's use case so I understand if fully. I want to ensure the way it's now working in 7.5.1 and 7.5.1.1 is adequate to solve the customer's problem. Peter Walker
