Route forms in backend (contact implementation Partners)

As a third option in backend "route document" tool can be used to route these "faulty" forms.
The tool could see and possibly route the otherwise "The Form Id does not exist"  documents. Allowing to "rock" the forms which will populate the route step users.
As an example if the first step is a "C" step and only E was visible (form diagnosis tool or instance form audit) then rocking the form will populate the EM too if it is correctly maintained for the E user.
