Work set standard and task life cycles
A life cycle is the list of states that a work set standard or work set task can go through from creation to closure.
Work set standard states
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| Draft | The standard can be edited by users with the work set standard author role. |
| Review | An approval request has been sent to the owner group. The standard can't be edited. |
| Published | The standard is active and can be scheduled or run from the Standards hub. The standard can't be edited. |
| Retired | The standard is inactive and can't be requested. The standard is read-only and can't be edited. |
| Revised | End state for an older version that has been replaced by a newer version. The standard is read-only and can't be edited. |
Approval states
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| Not yet requested | The standard has not been submitted for approval. |
| Requested | The approval request is awaiting review. Any active user in the owner group can approve the request. |
| Approved | The request has been approved. The state of the standard changes to Published. |
| Rejected | The request has been rejected. The state of the standard moves back to Draft. |
| Canceled | The request was withdrawn before a decision was made. |
Work set task states
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| Ready | The work set task is created and waiting to be picked up. |
| Work in Progress | The work set task is being executed. The system records the actual start time on entry to this state and moves the task to this state automatically when a child task starts or a child action closes. |
| On Hold | The work set task is paused. Operators can resume it by setting it back to Work in Progress. |
| Closed Complete | All child records are submitted or closed and the operator has submitted the work set task. The system records the actual end time. |
| Closed Skipped | The work set task has expired. Active child tasks move to Closed Skipped and active child actions move to Canceled. |
| Canceled | The work set task has been canceled by a work set expert. Active child tasks move to Canceled and active child actions move to Canceled. |
Important: A work set task can't be closed while it has active child tasks. Complete or cancel the remaining child records first.
