I do not have the final APK file yet but I want to start adding the screenshots and other information ahead of time. There is a “SAVE” button and I am assuming this should be possible but it’s not allowing me to save without the APK AFAIK…

You will need to upload a draft APK (never has to see the actual market) in order to get started. The only thing that MUST be correct here is the package name your app will use, as this is needed to create the new record, and is read out of the APK file rather than allowing users to enter it manually. Nothing else about the application has to even resemble what your final will be.
With the draft in place you can start updating all the other meta data and using the Save button to save your work. When you upload the final APK file, you may then click Publish.
