Introducing new DRAFT status in creating an issue work flow

A new DRAFT status is now available at the start of the issue lifecycle.

• You can create an issue and save it as DRAFT when you do not have complete information and edit it freely before submitting.

• When you submit the issue, it transitions from DRAFT to IN REVIEW status.

• If the Type manager declines an issue, it will now be returned to DRAFT status, allowing you to revise and resubmit the issue.

This update lets you capture an issue quickly, return later to add details, and avoid sending incomplete issues for review.
