Displaying the Topic Approval Workflow

All topics must be approved by a manager or someone in the organization other than the creator of the topic to ensure that the information is thoroughly reviewed. The approval workflow must be integrated with the company business process for Web content. A topic is available for deployment on or after the start date and only after it is approved.

To display the approval workflow

1. Find the topic that you want to approve.

   The Topic Definition pane opens.

2. Do one of the following:

   • To approve the topic, click Approval WorkFlow.

     The approved topic is available for deployment on or after the start date.

   • To reject the topic, click Reject.

   On the Approval Workflow pane, the series of stages are: Submit, Approve, or Deny. For more information, see Displaying the Microsite Approval Workflow.
