Edit an action state

1. In the left navigation pane, click the Settings icon ().
2. In the Configure System section, click Manage Topic Workflow Configurations.
3. Click the Row Action menu () for a configuration, and then click Manage Action States.

5. Modify the Name of the action state.

   If you modify a state name, any actions currently in that state are updated automatically.

   Note:

   You can rename the state named Init. However, it is always considered to be the initial state for an action and is automatically assigned to every new action created.
6. Modify the Description of the action state.
7. In the Possible next states field, specify the states that users can assign to an action that is in this state.

   Note:

   If state transitions are changed and these transitions are referenced in Action State Changed email notification rules, you need to first edit the notification rule. A list of the affected email notification rules is displayed.
8. To select a state, click Select Action States.
9. To indicate that this state will close an action when it is assigned, select This is a final state.

Note:

The topic workflow configuration may also require all of a topic's actions be in a final state before the topic itself can be assigned a final state. See Edit Workflow Configuration Options.
