Submitting Workspaces for Delivery

After you perform the checkpoint process on the latest workspace version, you can use the Submit for Delivery option under the Workspace menu to deliver the changes of your workspace to the MAIN workspace.

The Submit for Delivery process initiates the governance flow that may require one or more levels of review and approval. After the changes are submitted for delivery, the workspace is locked or read-only to prevent further configuration changes while the workspace is being reviewed. After the workspace is approved, it is delivered into the MAIN workspace.

NOTE:  When you select the Submit for Delivery option, the system identifies whether the rebase process is required with the current modifications. If the merge process is non-trivial, then an error message appears reminding you to run the rebase process before the system converts the workspace to read-only mode. When there is a trivial merge, the system changes the workspace status to Submitted for Delivery and converts the workspace to read-only mode.

To submit a workspace for delivery

1. In the workspace dashboard, select the Workspace menu and then select the Submit for Delivery option.

   A confirmation message appears enabling you to confirm the submission.

2. Click the Yes button to start the Submit for Delivery process.

   The workspace status in the View Mode pane changes to Submitted for Delivery and the workspace title indicates the workspace is read-only. You cannot perform any operation on the objects in the Object Explorer pane. Except for the Deliver option, other options under the Workspace menu such as Checkpoint, Revert, and Rebase are also disabled.

   Alternatively, click the No button to cancel the submission. Then you can continue to make changes on the objects.

3. If there is a non-trivial merge issue, then an error message appears and you must perform the rebase process and then submit the workspace for delivery again.
