This feature is badly needed. We should be able to set "ANY" status on a task/ brief/ campaign once the object has been approved or rejected. Only being able to set the status to the previous state "if rejected" is very frustrating.
This seems like a huge miss on Workfront's side. Updating status based on Rejection is a functionality but updating status based on an approval isn't seems like gross oversight. Based on other comments and feedback, this should really be prioritized.
I agree, the approval processes are almost worthless without a status change for both approved and rejected. You can't even kick off the next path in the approval process because the status won't change upon approval to move it along
I really hope this can be prioritized at some point. It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to set the status we need it to change to afterwards. We have a situation where there are two different people the approval could route to based on the status chosen, then the approval routes through two more stages of people. At the end, the person cannot "approve" but must change the status to In Progress since the Approval will revert back to original. So it would be great if I could just directly tell it to switch to In Progress if fully approved. In general, we rarely need these to go back to what they started as and prefer a different status at the end. Thank you!
