RTC Defects -- Single verification changes status of whole work item
I have a defect in Resolved/Fixed Status with two pending verifications in the Approvals tab (using web client).
When I change the state of one the Verifications to Approved, the Status of the defect automatically changes to Closed. There is still one pending Verification however, so this is not what I want to happen. I would rather the Status did not automatically change at all, but at least it should not change until all verifications are complete.
So does anyone know why this happening? Or, if there is a way to prevent this behavior? (Using RTC 4.0.4).
Thanks

This is configurable from Approval Trackings section :
"Define how an approval state change can trigger a workflow action."
reachable using :
Open PA in Eclipse Client > Process Configuration Tab >Project Configuration > Configuration Data > Work Items > Approval Trackings
Pick a Specific Work Flow > Pick a Specific State under an Approval Kind > Mention the Work Flow Action to trigger to.

One other answer
The Precondition :
Required Approvals
is what you are looking for I believe, which states :
"Verifies that a work item can only be saved if all required approvals are in the configured state."
here is how you reach to it :
Open PA in Eclipse Client > Process Configuration Tab > Under Team Configuration > Operation Behavior > Work Items > Save Work Item (server) > Select a Role > Preconditions > Add > Required Approvals
hope it helps
