Contributor Data Files in Workflows

Forcing a contributor data file to go through a criteria workflow is the most common workflow process for contributors to the Web site. This file represents the actual content of a web page and is therefore updated with information whenever a contributor edits the web page in Contributor.

When you add a contributor data file to a workflow, you are in effect ensuring that any changes contributors make to a contribution region of a Web site go through an approval process before the changes can be posted to the live Web site.
