Is there an Issue status that can be used that doesn't generate notifications when used?

We are importing bulk Issues into Workfront for an upcoming onboarding of Projects. Usually, each one generates 3 different associated notifications. We don't want users to be burdened with mass notifications.

I know there is a Project status that can be used "Planning" so modifications can be made to the Project that won't send out notifications. Is there a similar status that can be used for Issues?

well.... I would test it out in the system but you could do one of two things since this is a bulk import:

 

1) if they are all going into the same project, move the project to planning status and I think whatever happens to the issues also doesn't notify.

2) you could just turn off the three notifications while you're importing, and then turn them back on when you're done.
