Submit Jobs Automatically Based on Lifecycle State Change

You can configure a lifecycle to automatically synchronize properties and submit files to the job server for processing whenever a certain lifecycle state changes.

Note: You must be an administrator to modify lifecycle settings.

1. Click Tools  Administration Vault Settings.
2. On the Vault Settings dialog box click Behaviors tab  Lifecycles.
3. In the Lifecycle Definition dialog box, select the name of the lifecycle definition, and then click Edit. The selected definition name appears in the title bar.
4. From the Lifecycle States list, select the lifecycle state to edit, and then click the Transitions tab.
5. On the Transitions tab, the state transitions are listed in the From State and To State columns. Select the transition that you wish to modify and click Edit.

   There are four options in the Transition dialog: Criteria, Actions, Custom Job Types, and Security.

6. Select the Actions tab.
7. Select the check box for Synchronize properties and update view using Job Server from the Available Actions list.

   If you do not see this option listed, click the drop-down arrow for Synchronize properties using Job Server and select Synchronize properties and update view using Job Server from the drop-down list.

   
   Note: Selecting this option from the list does not automatically select the check box as well. Make sure to select the check box beside the option too.
