Status of Documents

The following statuses exist for documents:

Status	Meaning
In Process	The document can be changed.
Invalid	Do not use the document. Only the functions Delete and Move are possible in this status; you cannot make any other changes. You can set a document with this status to In Process again.
Released	The document has been released. You cannot make any changes to the document. You can change the status of the document to Invalid. You can only copy released documents from the document templates to a project.

Note Note

The status of a document does not influence the changeability of superordinate folders and project elements. You can delete project elements and folders even if they contain released documents.

End of the note.
