How to create a new view version if Revise Transition is not set

Hi

Is there any possibility to create a new view version of a WTPart where the "Revise Transition" is not defined?

If I use 

WTPart mPart = (WTPart) ViewHelper.service.newBranchForView(part, "Manufacturing");
mPart = (WTPart) PersistenceHelper.manager.store(mPart);

I will get the error, that no revise transition is not defined. The method ViewHelper.service.newBranchForView does not throw any exception. This is thrown when storing the new WTPart.

Caused by: (wt.lifecycle.lifecycleResource/223) wt.util.WTException: Revise transitions not defined for current version in life cycle template.

I don't wan't to set any "dummy" revise transition for only creating a new view. Did anybody find a workaround?

Thanks for any help.
