Different events can be used to increment a composite version number.
The workflow uses the following trigger actions
- initialize a version value using
{set-metadata}macro - increment the version value using the
{increment-metadata}macro using different triggers for each element of a composite version number
You will need to refresh the page content to view changes in the metadata value if you use the get-metadata macro on the page to display the metadata value.

An individual reviewer rejection decision on its own does not impact the metadata content-version value.
The metadata value is linked to a page not a Confluence page version so when viewing a previous page version this will show the current metadata value.
For example, viewing the final Approved state content whilst content is in draft would display the current metadata value NOT the metadata value when the content was published.
