Adding State to Lifecycle Model
You can access this page only if you have the Manage Lifecycle Models permission for a particular organization in CentraSite.
*To add a new state to an existing lifecycle model
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Administration > Lifecycles > Models.
2. Right-click a lifecycle model you want to add the state, and click Details.
This opens the Edit Lifecycle Model page.
3. In the States tab, click Add State.
4. Provide the values for the fields as required.
a. In the field labeled State Name, type the name of the state.
b. In the field labeled Description, type the description for the state.
c. In the area labeled Transitions, select a state that can be reached as a result of a transition from the current state. In the Target State list, you can select the target state from a list of the states that you have defined so far.
Note:
You may find it convenient to define all of the states before you start to define the state transitions.
If you wish to define more than one target state from the current state, click the plus icon next to the target state name.
If you have more than one target state, select one of the target states as the default target state by choosing the radio button in the column labeled Default.
You can show or hide the transition area for a state by clicking the chevron in the header line of the Transitions area.
5. To define additional states, use the Add State button as required.
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.
