Workflow states and state transitions
The Review state has a content review, named Approval.
The reviewer simply decides on the whether to approve or reject the content. The transition destination state for each decision is set by the workflow.
The Approved state is defined as the final (or published) state in the workflow.

In the Basic Approval workflow, the workflow transitions the content to the Review state when a user edits the page or blog post. |
The workflow popup has a Document Activity button to display the workflow document activity.
Adding approval assignees
Using the workflow popup, you can manually assign one or more users to review the content in the Review state, and if required add a note for the reviewer.
If you assign multiple users to undertake the content review, each assigned reviewer will need to give their individual approval before the content is approved and any approved transition takes place
Navigating between Versions
When an approved page has been edited, it transitions to the Reviewstate.
In this moment, there are two versions or views of the same page
the previously approved version of the page i.e. the page in the state Approved
the page with the latest modification i.e. the page in the Review state
If we are in the Review state, we can always navigate to the page latest approved version, with the View approved link.
This option allows you to easily view the latest approved version while the page is in the workflow draft state Review.
In the latest approvedversion we can navigate to the current content version that is awaiting review with the View pending approval link.
