Added workflow status to reference projects
By analyzing the utilization of custom tags used by our customers as well as gathering feedback from our users, we observed the need for a way to govern the reference projects throughout its lifecycle.
Lifecycle - Workflow status
In CV Partner a reference project now has several phases to its lifecycle. We define each phase as a workflow status, and today we have 3 of them, but we might extend this into more phases in a later iteration.
1) Drafts
Drafts are personal, and can only be viewed and edited by the reference owners as well as reference managers and administrators.
2) Ready for review
When a draft is ready for a quality assurance review, the reference owner selects the "Ready for review" status in the draft reference project. The Reference project will now pop up in the Ready for review column for Reference managers and Administrators of the account.
3) Published internally
After a review phase by a reference manager or an administrator, a reference manager or an administrator can select the status "Published internally". The reference project is now available in the "Reference projects - content tab" for all users in the account. (As well as across company groups).
If you are already a user of the reference projects in CV Partner, all of your official reference projects are found under "Published internally".
