Publish for test but not prod

Our workflow has creators crating content on a staging server. That is synced every hour to a QA server so they can see what things look like before publishing to the world.

They want to schedule a publishing date as a means of making it visible to the public. The staging server is also synced to the public server, but as long as the scheduled publishing date has not been reached, it is not visible to the public.

The problem is that it is also not visible on the QA site until the publishing date.

Is there a way to publish to QA immediately, but maintain a scheduled publishing date in the future? I'd like to do this with configuration, not customization.

How did this work finally? Updates?

On the QA server you could share preview links to users outside of Sitefinity to review the page.  www.progress.com/.../share-a-link-to-a-page-to-anonymous-users

Thanks for the Answer!
