Major version increment

[raoul]

Hi,

We are testing Open Knowledge Management in our company, and we would like to know if it is possible to :

- Modify file's status to draft, draft-approved or approved
- When a file is draft, edit it and it keeps same version number.
- When a file is draft approved, if it is edited, it must go up by one minor iteration, say 1.1 to 1.2
- When a file is approved, it cannot be edited at all. A new major version increment is made -> 2 to 3.

Many thanks in advance for your support

The most easiest way for doing it is using a workflow. Probably could not be necessary implementing any extension ... you could use metadata to see the document status.
The workflows are done with jbpm, in our wiki.openkm.com section can be found information how doing it. If you have not capabilities for doing it, you can contact with us at http://www.openkm.com/Contact ( refer to this forum post ).
