Greetings Peter,
What are the Object Types that are assigned to your User Status profile in OIBS? Is it Work Clearance Document, Item, or both?
What do you mean exactly about "disabling untagging and temporary untagging" ? Is this about setting stati UNT & TEST on Header level, or BUG, EUG & ETUG on Item level?
And are you saying that the status control you require works for you well initially, until you remove and reset the status, or do you mean that it worked on a different Status Profile,which you are trying to recreate?
