The Sign Off with Form allows you to sign off on documents using a form in which you can update properties
and add revision notes.
What happens when I use sign off with form?
When you use the sign off with form for a document:
-
The revised document allows you to update properties and add revision notes using
a form.
-
The document is set to be the current released revision.
-
The status for the latest revision is set to CURRENT and the revise state is set to blank.
-
The status of the document master is changed to ISSUED.
-
The signed off revision of the document supersedes any previously released revisions.
-
Document revisions that have been signed off are frozen and cannot be checked out.

SUPERSEDED.
