Lesson 3: Creating a master lifecycle

You must have repository administrator privileges to create a master lifecycle.
  1. Click Administration.
  2. Click Master Lifecycles.
  3. Click New Lifecycle.
  4. Select the Standard workflow. The standard workflow applies most widely. You can also choose more specialized workflows, but keep in mind that these must apply to the community level lifecycles and the assets as well.
  5. Click Next.
  6. For the name of the lifecycle, enter Rational sales master lifecycle. This name is viewed at the community level, so when choosing a lifecycle name, make sure it’s specific enough that the community administrators know what to use this for.

  8. Click Save.
All communities in the repository have access to a master lifecycle with a standard workflow.
When you make changes to a master lifecycle that is has been customized by community and asset lifecycles, the changes at the master lifecycle are reflected in the community and asset lifecycles upon saving.
