Make new snapshots match maps status

Starting in IXIASOFT CCMS Web 6.8, users can have the status of new snapshots match the status of maps at Authoring:done.

To have the status of a snapshot match the status of the map, you need to change the level for each snapshot status.
Note: New snapshots can only match the status of maps at Authoring:done. If maps have other statuses (such as Authoring:approval), snapshots of the map will have Authoring:review status.
  1. In the TEXTML Administration perspective, connect to your server.
  2. Expand the Content Store's Repository node, and locate the snapshot_status.xml file in the /system/webplatform/configuration/ collection.
  3. Check out the file and open it for editing.
  4. In the cycle element with the name="Authoring" attribute, find the review and done statuses.
    For example, this shows both statuses for snapshots:
    <cycle collection="/content/snapshots/" description="" initial="true" lastworkcycle="true" level="0" name="Authoring" type="work">
    		<nextCycle/>
    		<states>
    			<state initial="true" level="10" name="review" type="review" color="175;233;198">
    				<lockable>
    					<objtypes>
    						<type>all</type>
    					</objtypes>
    				</lockable>
    				<nextStates>
    					<next>done</next>
    				</nextStates>
    			</state>
    			<state level="11" name="done" type="end" color="175;233;198">
    				<lockable>
    					<objtypes>
    						<type>none</type>
    					</objtypes>
    				</lockable>
    				<nextStates>
    					<next>review</next>
    				</nextStates>
    			</state>
    			
    		</states>
    	</cycle>
  5. For the state element with name="review", change it to level="9".
  6. For the state element with name="done", change it to level="10".
    The level attribute for the status needs to be equal to or lower than the level attribute for the same status that maps use as defined in map_status.xml.
  7. Save changes to the file.
  8. Click Check In Document (check in manager icon).
  9. Inform users of the changes.
    The changes will be applied automatically once users close and then reopen their CCMS Desktop. Users can also apply the changes without restarting their CCMS Desktop by clicking IXIASOFT CCMS > Synchronize Configuration. Additionally, refresh IXIASOFT CCMS Web so that users will see the change reflected there.
