Document lifecycles
| Tip |
|---|
Document management is not just a matter of convenience; it's a critical element of effective governance, risk management, and compliance. It ensures that employees have access to the correct information at the right time in a secure and organized manner, ultimately contributing to the success and longevity of a company. |
With Comala Document Management, you can define document lifecycles that reflect the stages of your service and process designs.
You can define specific workflow
...
milestones and permissions for each stage, ensuring
...
only authorized users can access and modify the documents.
For example, you might have a proposal stage, a project plan stage, a development stage, and a testing stage. If publishing a policy or practice guide, you can prevent these from becoming stale by setting a time period for an “out-of-date” review.

Managing content expiration using workflow parameters
...
Content expiration can be set for any workflow state, not just
...
your published content.
...
One thing customers sometimes ask is “How can I warn my team in advance of page content that is nearing the end of it’s set time period before the “out-of-date” review?”. Confluence does not provide a way to monitor this date but the following is a useful way of managing this and provide custom email notifications in advance of the set due date for expiry.
Customer case studies
...
In the Content Expiry workflow, the Approved state expiry uses a workflow parameter to manage the expiry due date period.
We have a helpful way of managing this value & providing control over the expiration due date in a space by setting the value for workflow parameters included in a workflow.
