Phase Transitions
Use the Transitions tab to configure target destination states that an object can move to from a given state through a particular type of operation. For a conceptual overview, see Using Life Cycle Transitions.
When configuring life cycle transitions, note the following:
Life cycle transitions do not override other access control settings set on objects. For example, policy administrators can disable access to the Revise action for team members. Setting the Revise transition in the life cycle does not override the access policy.
For more information on which transitions might be best for your site, see Planning Object State Change Policies.
You do not have to set a transition for every transition type. If you do not configure any transitions, default transitions are applied. For more information about configuring the default transitions, see Life Cycle Transitions and Defaults.
Administrators at your site can create custom state transitions. For more information, see Defining Customized Life Cycle Transitions.
By default, the following transitions are available:
Change
The state to which an object is moved when the change process completes.
Lock
This transition is only valid when using the promotion request process. It identifies a temporary state to apply to an object while reviewers consider a promotion request.
For example, you add the Pending Approval phase to a life cycle and configure a restricted set of access policies that applies to objects in the Pending Approval state.
From the Released phase, you specify the Pending Approval state for the Lock transition. As a result, when a user creates a promotion request for an object that is in the Released state, the object is placed in the Pending Approval state until the promotion process completes.
Obsolescence
Defines the path used to make object versions obsolete through a change process.
Production Released
Defines the path used when releasing object versions to production through a change process.
Promote
The Target Promotion State options available when creating a new promotion request.
Refine
The state of objects undergoing rework or being refined. This transition is not used out-of-the-box, but can be used in a custom workflow.
Review
The state of objects progressing through a review process. This transition is not used out-of-the-box, but can be used in a custom workflow.
Revise
Set the initial state of a new object version created from an existing object.
This applies to versions created through the following actions:
Revise
New View Version
New One Off Version
Set State
The Target State options available when performing the Set State action.
* 
This transition only applies to non-administrative users who are granted access to the Set State action. Administrators can continue to use the Set State action to move an object between all available states.
* 
To perform a Set State operation, non-administrative users must have the Set State permission granted through the Policy Administration utility. For more information, see Planning Object State Change Policies.
Life Cycle Transition Example
Consider the following basic life cycle:
You select the Under Review phase. From here, you can use the Transitions tab to define how an object in the Under Review state can move to a different state:
Change
The object can transition to the Approved state as the result of change-related actions.
Promote
When a user initiates the New Promotion Request action, the following target states are available:
Released
Canceled
Revise
When a user completes the Revise action, the new revision is moved back to the In Work state:
* 
The Revise transition also defines the initial state when performing the New One Off Version and New View Version actions.
Set State
When a non-administrative user initiates the Set State action, the following target states are available:
In Work
Canceled
