Defining Stage Transitions for Lifecycle Model
Pre-requisites:
To define stage transition for an organization-specific lifecycle model, you must have the Manage Lifecycle Models permission for the organization.
By default, users in the CentraSite Administrator or Organization Administrator role have this permission, although an administrator can grant this permission to other roles.
You define the stage transition from an end state of the current stage to one or more new stages. An end state is a state that has no transitions to other states.
The term promotion is used to describe the transition of an asset from one stage to the next stage.
You can define stage transitions for a lifecycle model using the Lifecycle Model details page.
*To define stage transitions for the lifecycle model
1. In the CentraSite Business UI activity bar, click Design Time.
2. Select the lifecycle model for which you want to define the state transition.
This opens the Lifecycle Model details page.
3. In the canvas area, click on a final state.
The stage details are displayed on the right side.
4. In the Promotion Stages list box, select one or more stages that can be the target of a transition from the selected state.
5. Click OK.
6. Click Save.
CentraSite validates the updated lifecycle model.
If there are no validation errors, the lifecycle model is updated in the CentraSite Registry Repository. If any part of the model is invalid, this is indicated by an appropriate error message.
