I don't believe this is possible, but I thought I would ask before opening an enhancement:

Is it possible to create a query that lists Defect work items types where there is no Verification approval for the creator?

I was thinking it would be something like this in the query builder:
Type = Defect
where
ApprovalDescriptors > Type is  Verification
and
Created By  IS NOT Approvals > Approver

Right now, I can use Created By is "Joe" and Approvals>Approver is not "Joe" but I either have to:
1) use "current user" and tell all 300 people to run it
2) create 300 queries (1 for each person)
3) create a query that takes parameters for those two people, run it 300 times, and make sure that I pick the same person for both parameters.

Hello,

I don't think it's currently possible, but definitely it would make a great enhancement.
If you do go ahead and create the enhancement request, please share the link here.

 Hi Susan,
                  You need not create queries for each user, instead -> you can use "currentUser" as the variable type while creating queries via the process configuration.

Are you creating queries via the process config?

Thanks.

No, i am not creating them via process config.
However, I can use "current user" if I create it via query builder, but that means that every individual person has to run the query.  We want 1 person to be able to run the query and see all the work items that fail this check in a single query result.

Such cases not possible using queries can be done via BIRT/Insight reports and interfaced in RTC Dashboard.  However, i am not sure if it's available in the latest RTC version.


Thanks.
