-------------------------------
Summary: Versioned items will re-enter Collection workflow
approval?
Key: DS-1335
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1335
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: Bug
Components: XMLUI
Affects Versions: 3.0
Reporter: Tim Donohue
Priority: Major
Fix For: 3.0
I'm not sure if this is a misunderstanding of the new Item Versioning feature.
But, I noticed that if an Approval Workflow is required for a Collection, when
you version an item that new version goes back into the Approval process.
This seems rather odd to me that the initial item and the new version both
require approval. Plus, it ends up making versioning an item extremely
confusing. Here's what happens:
1. Visit Item in a Collection having an approval workflow (e.g.
http://demo.dspace.org/xmlui/handle/10673/21)
2. Click "Create version for this item" & enter a reason
3. You re-enter the submission process & make changes
4. At the completion of the submission process you just get the normal
'submission complete' page (which in itself is slightly odd as you just created
a version not a new submission. Shouldn't this instead send you back to the
item page?)
5. You manually return to the item page. It says a new version is still "in
workflow"
6. You then have to have someone go in and approve the new version before it
will appear publicly.
So, there may be two questions here:
* Shouldn't a new version of an item automatically skip over any approval
workflows (or at least provide an option to skip it)?
* At the end of creating a new version, is there any way to return back to the
item page itself (rather than giving users the generic "Thanks for your
submission" confirmation screen, which is misleading)
