About Assigning Lifecycles to Object Types

The majority of lifecycle operations are normally performed using the Lifecycles option from the Administration Console main window. These functions are described in About Lifecycle Management.

The lifecycle functions provided here enable you to:

- View the states and transitions of existing lifecycles as well as any associated graphical images.

- Assign a lifecycle to a particular object type for a particular product.

- Edit the details of the lifecycle associated with an object type. This lifecycle may also be currently used by a number of other object classes and types.

- Edit or delete transition and lifecycle state details for existing lifecycles.

See About Lifecycle Management for details on constraints in the use of lifecycles.
