1916369 - Changes not saved when closing PM document if 'Next status' is set to Initial

In transaction PHAP_CATALOG, tab "Status Flow" it is possible to define the behaviour of an appraisal in case a pushbutton is pressed in a certain (Sub)status using attribute "Next status" (possible values: initial, 1, X).

In case the attribute value is initial and the pushbuttons is pressed in the appraisal the status is moved to the Target Status, but this change is not saved to the backend, yet. In order to save the status change and also the data input that was done before pressing the button the user has to press the save button once more. If the appraisal document is closed using the "X" of the IE the data input is lost.
