IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2            

Promoting a document version

You can promote the current minor version of a document to a major version without checking the document out and in. When you promote the version, the major version number increments by one and the minor version number is set to zero (0). For example, if version 0.1 is promoted, the version number becomes version 1.0 and no other version exists. If version 1.4 is promoted, the version number becomes version 2.0, version 1.4 no longer exists, but all other versions remain unchanged.

You cannot promote a document while it is checked out.

To promote a document version:

  1. Navigate to the document you want to promote. Right-click the document and click More Actions > Promote Version.
  2. If needed, review the Security Policy if one is assigned. If no policy is currently assigned, you can click Assign Policy to assign a policy. See Security Policy for more information.
  3. Review the displayed security settings and make any needed changes. For more information, see Set Security Permissions.
  4. Click Accept to complete the action.
