Change Sets: managing your drafts and published documents

A is a collection of drafts and related entities undergoing changes together.

All entities in the same change set are reviewed together — all review requirements from included entities are combined.

Improved Review Requirements

We've improved to how it can be configured and executed, such as:

On templates, you can now set minimum review requirements that all instances of that template must meet.
When you request a review, each requirement that has been set becomes a phase in the review process. You can then:
- Select who from each role to notify, or ‘notify all’
- Re-order the phases
- Add new phases
