Transition Authorization
Use
This authorization specifies whether you are allowed to execute a specific status transition .
If you have authorization for the status transition
Release
, you can change the
status
of a document that is assigned to the
status profile
for this status transition from
Being checked
to
Released
.
Prerequisites
To set an object that has a specific status (such as
Being checked
) to another status (such as
Released
), you must have transition authorization for the status transition (for example, status transition
Release
). You have transition authorization if you have write authorization for the object.
Note
Transition authorizations can also be defined explicitly in the status profile. In this case, only these explicitly authorized users are permitted to execute the status transition (assuming they have at least read authorization for the object). For information on how object authorizations defined in a status profile affect status transitions, see Object Authorizations per Status .
