[rt-users] Seeing approvals

[Kenneth Crocker]

Emmanuel,


	Have you looked at the QA WorkFlow design document I sent to the  RT 
Docs subversion archive? It has an Approvals portion in it. It is 
designed around a front-end queue that acts as a collection of requests 
waiting for approval. The normal RT privileges can be applied (like 
creating a group and granting privileges for the members to 
see/approve/move ticket to support queue) as well as any specific 
notifications to let requestors know that their request is 1)being 
looked at, 2)approved, 3)rejected (with comments), etc. Of course, it 
requires an AdminCc to oversee it, but the basic design is there AND the 
ticket numbers tay the same (great for auditability).
