Assign workflows to resources

You can initiate a workflow for your resources to have them, for example, reviewed, approved, or released, depending on the needs of your company. For sample purposes, TCM Release Process adds a status of TCM Released to your resource. Your system administrator can use this process as a basis to help configure a workflow that suits your needs and associate access permissions based on the status.

To assign a TCM Released status to a resource:

Procedure

  1. Select the resource for which you want to initiate the workflow.

  2. Choose File→New→Workflow Process.

  3. Select TCM Release Process from the Process Template list.

  4. Click OK.

  5. Select the resource and choose Refresh from the shortcut menu.

Results

A flag beside the resource indicates that it has a status, in this case, TCM Released.
