Creating status transitions

New transitions from status to status, for specific user roles, may need to be created.

Procedure

  1. Log in as administrator to the Content Manager Web Client.
  2. Select the Settings tab.
  3. Select the Status Transitions tab on the left hand side.
  4. Select Add to open the Add Status Transition dialog.
  5. Select the from and the to status for your status transition.
  6. Optionally you can add extra criteria that need to be met in order to successfully execute the status change:
    • A user role. If no user role is assigned any user can trigger the status transition, regardless of the roles that were assigned to him.
    • A condition on the object for which the transition is performed. That transition will therefore be valid only for the selected object(s).
  7. Select Add.
