Auto Repeat Journal in Draft mode instead of Submit mode

ie have set up Auto repeat on journal and expected the journal to be dropping on scheduled dates as submitted but i discovered that the journals were not submitted but rather came in as drafts.Can any of my friend point me to what i am doing wrong or how to set auto repeat to submit the created journals automatically rather than just Draft status that will require manual submission.
Deeply appreciated
Thanks
Fred

Can you explain a bit more for what are you exactly trying to do?
Can we get a snippet or something which will elaborate more.
