Sorry to jump in so late, but I would probably check the Approval Process Mappings and see what status you have set to move to if there are no approvers. This is where you can set the status defaults for each stage. Also, if there is a 'Business Approval' stage/phase, and there are no approvers d

We are also not using the Assignment Engine in our implementation. We have an event to assign a Problem Manager which works just fine, so I would make sure that -every mapped field- in the assignment event really does match the problem record you are on. (One little difference doesn't necessaril

I've found that there are additional filters that translate the #fieldname# from the SYS:form into the $fieldname$ variables that we're use to seeing. For example, take a look at this filter: NTE:SHR:TranslateNotificationMessageINC1_100 It very well could be the one that you need to modify for yo
