When managing an open Jama Review, use can select a drop down menu option to "Finalize approval review"

This option behave unintuitively. I.e all items within the review will be moved to a specific status. If there is a rejected and an approved status, all items within the reviewed will be move to Approved status regardless of whether the reviewers and approvers have checked or X'ed it. This drop down select option is extremely unintuitive.

  1. At the minimum it should be renamed to reflect exactly what it's behavior is.
  2. It should detect which items were rejected and moved them to a Rejected status and which items are approved and moved to Approved status.

    Yes please! Because at this point — after lengthy discussions both with (a) our Jama success rep, and (b) someone on the Jama developer team — the only way we could see doing this would be by hand-writing and maintaining a SeleniumIDE-style automated web script that will:

    1. go through items-that-were-reviewed that are in just-completed reviews
    2. identify whether those items-that-were-reviewed were 100% approved — or not
    3. IF an item-that-was-reviewed was 100% approved
      1. THEN change that item-that-was-reviewed's status to "Approved"
      2. ELSE change that item-that-was-reviewed's status to "Needs Work" — or send it back to "Draft"

    Additionally, the script would need to identify items-currently-under-review — and set the statuses of each of those items-currently-under-review to "Under Review"
