Defining Stage Transitions for Lifecycle Model
To define a stage transition for the lifecycle model, you must have the Manage Lifecycle Models permission for the particular organization in CentraSite.
You can define a stage transition for the lifecycle model on the Edit Lifecycle Model page.
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.
*To define stage transitions for the lifecycle model
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Administration > Lifecycles > Models.
2. Right-click a lifecycle model you want to define the state transition, and click Details.
This opens the Edit Lifecycle Model page.
3. In the States tab, click the Stages button for the required state.
A list of the defined stages is displayed in the Select State dialog box.
4. In the Select State dialog box, select one or multiple 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 or repository. If any part of the model is invalid, this is indicated by an appropriate error message.
