Change the Status of Business Assets

All digital assets are considered to be drafts until they’re specifically changed to a different status, such as “approved” or “in review.”

Here’s what you need to know about changing the status of a business asset:

  • The status of an asset can only be changed when you view the asset.
  • Keep in mind that only managers or owners of a repository can change the status of an asset. If a repository was shared with you and you don’t have a manager role, you won’t be able to change the status.
  • If you upload a new version of a business document, it’s automatically labeled as Draft.

An asset's status is designated by its icon:

  • green circle with white dot Approved
  • red circle with white X Rejected
  • gray circle with vertical white line Draft
  • yellow circle with a horizontal white line In Review

To change the status of an asset:

  1. On the Assets page, right-click or select the asset.
  2. Choose the new status from the right-click menu or the Workflow menu.

Asset Workflows

If your service and content administrators have configured Oracle Content Management to use additional workflow options, a change in asset status may be done automatically as an asset moves through a workflow.
