Review Implementation Plan
Route: Open Implementation Plan
Assignee: Tech Lead | Solution Architect 🔧
After the Developer/SA finishes the Implementation Plan and submits it for review, the approval process works the same way as for the BRD — through the Floating Action Buttons at the bottom of the workspace. The status flow and the buttons are identical.
Ticket status lifecycle
CREATED → DRAFTING → WAITING_REVIEW → REVIEWING → APPROVED
↓
REJECTED → (Request Review again)
Any status → ON_HOLD → (Track Back to DRAFTING)
