Publish/Draft on Status Report in Project Workspace

Hi,

Can anyone explain the intended functionality behind the Published/Draft option on a status report in Project Workspace. 

It seems than whenever we create a report in draft, we can still toggle its status between Published and Draft. I would have expected Published to prevent this and perhaps lock the report down in some way

 

Thanks

Atul G - Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the link doesnt address the draft/published option available in Project Workspace V7. It seems its only purpose is to provide a visual to the submitter, but I can see situations where the PM will complete in draft and forget to move to publish, and the fact that they could then move it back to draft at the touch of the same button would suggest it is purely a visual aid, which is not that good a feature in my opinion.

Sorry mate, I don’t have much idea. I agree with you, but just to improve the user experience, it has been added. Please log a case with the Now Support Team to guide you further.
