Thanks for clarifying that in my brain, it makes perfect sense now. Unfortunately, if you are looking to route to a specific assignee group based on the Change Statuses, this is not OOTB with the Assignment Engine.
The only way I could think of getting close to this is to set up Approvals at each of these phases (which is OOTB), and then have a task template that has tasks relating to each status, and may end with what group to assign it to next. Not the most flexible way of doing things, but I'm not sure of any other way OOTB.

Now for each of the states in the stages obviously there is a particular group involved which does the work. I wanted to know if I can set an auto routing depending on these conditions say that after the first stage which is initiate - draft when the next stage is requested which is initiate - request for authorization the work automatically flows to the pre defined support group which deals with it. I have nothing to feed in the operational or product category currently in the company. Can I use it somehow to asign the requests?? I know it sounds complicated but I would like to know what is feasible to do without any customizations. Hope this explanation helped you to understand my problem. I can send you a more detailed explanation if required.

The Assignment Engine will assign to a Support Group based on various categorizations and locations, by application and/or service type. The Auto Assignment to individual is by company, and will work the same for every support group in that company (i.e. round robin) That's about as smart as it gets OOTB.
