Transformations/Envelopes Please Remove Production facing Envelopes from view in CTE Next Envelope choice list.

It is confusing and might lead to issues, if permitted to select a Next Envelope on a CTE envelope that does not actually exist in CTE.

For example, in the screenshots attached, when searching for a next envelope, the list provides 4 GS envelopes, the two listed as (Not Yet Deployed) are actually deployed, but in PRODUCTION only. If you click on the 850 at the top, it takes you to the second screenshot. This shouldn't be permitted, ONLY envelopes that exist in CTE should be listed and available to be selected.
