Introduction

This guide demonstrates how to assign an Approval Process to a wiki or category page.

Requirements

  • Approval Processes can only be applied to Wikis or Catgegory Pages if you have the Version Control feature activated on your Dozuki site. Contact support@dozuki.com to request these features to be activated.
  • Only Site Administrators have permission to view, create, and assign Approval Processes.

    • Click on the Approval Process tab.

    • The Approval Process field will open to give you two release options: Major and Minor.

    • Only site Administrators have access to this tab.

    • By default, you have the option to assign separate Approval Processes to each Major Releases and Minor Releases of a wiki or category page.

    • If you do not need this amount of flexibility for your document control, you can choose to deactivate the "Minor Release" option from your site by contacting Dozuki Support.

  3. Click in the Major Release Approval Process field and begin typing in the name of the Approval Process that you want to assign for each version type. Select the correct Process from the available options provided. If you do not see the process you need, you may need to Create a New Approval Process.

    • Select the correct Process from the available options provided.

    • If you do not see the process you need, you may need to Create a New Approval Process.

    • Repeat the above steps for the Minor Release Approval Process.

  4. You have the ability to assign three different Approval Processes to your release. The processes are based on the type of release published. This gives you flexibility in your document control. Strict Control: Assign the same Approval Process to both release types. This means the new release will ALWAYS go through the same Approval Process, no matter which release type an Author chooses to publish.
