Enhanced projects include improved content lifecycle management and the ability to create project templates.
The person who sets up a project is the project manager. The project managerconfigures the lifecycle management pattern for the project. The project manager can add workflow stages to the project, define approvers, and select the publishing option. Approvers can include individuals or groups. The project manager can also specify whether joint approval is needed before the project publishes.
Publishing options include manual, automatic, and by date. For the manual option, you have greater control and you manually publish content as requested. Syndication configuration that you setup controls the automatic and by-date publishing option.
To simplify project creation and management, project managers can create project templates that are configured with common selections. A template includes the lifecycle management options, publication option, workflow actions, and approvers.
