Draft and final states

Overview

If the workflow has a final state, the workflow treats the final state version of the document differently to other state versions.

The final state is the published content. When the document is in any other state in the workflow, the document is considered as draft content

• By default, users with View-only permission only see the most recently published version – they can't see draft versions

• Users who have edit or administrator permission can see all versions, and easily switch between the last published (final) and draft versions

Content byline

If both published and draft versions are available, you see an additional link, in parentheses, on the content byline

Open

The link with the colored circle, in the example above, Initial, is the version you are currently viewing.

In the example above, the link in brackets (view “Approved”) takes you to the alternate version of the page.
