Publication States
Publications (S1000D Publication Structures) can exist in one of three states:
Preview. Unofficial draft publication for the publication administrator’s own purposes.
The latest versions of publication modules are used regardless of workflow state.
Draft. Official draft publication that is exchanged in the normal draft/review process.
The following publication module workflow states are used:

REWORK REQUIRED
ISSUE REQUIRED
ISSUED
DELIVERED

Optionally:

WIP

These optional states are selected using Include In-Work Documents on the Create New Publication Structure and Edit Attributes dialog boxes.
Creating a draft publication increments the In Work value of the associated publication module.
Final. The final version of a publication that is delivered to customers.
The following publication module workflow states are used:
ISSUED
DELIVERED
Creating a final publication increments the issue number of the associated publication module, and sets the In Work value to 00.
