How to Change Lifecycle State of an Asset
If an asset has an associated lifecycle model, you can use the following procedure to switch the asset's lifecycle state.
To change the lifecycle state of an asset
1. In CentraSite Business UI, display the details page for the asset whose lifecycle state you want to change. If you need procedures for this step, see Displaying Details of an Asset. 2. In the actions bar for the asset, click Edit.
3. In the Basic Information profile, locate the Lifecycle State attribute.
4. From the drop-down box, select the state to which you want to switch the asset. (The list will contain only the states that you are permitted to assign to the asset.)
5. When you have finished making your selection, click Save.
When you are prompted to confirm the save operation, click Yes.
If the state change requires approval, CentraSite Business UI will initiate an approval workflow and your request for a state change will be submitted to the appropriate approvers. While the request is awaiting approval, the asset will appear in the pending mode.
