Propose a change

A Contributor prepares changes in a change set for someone authorised to publish. Read Change sets for shared work and publication.

  1. In Live, open the record and choose Propose a change, or choose Propose a new … on a collection to add a record. These offers depend on your permission for that type.
  2. If you have no open change set of your own, the Propose a change dialog asks for Change set name. Give the work a recognisable name, then choose Start and edit. Cancel leaves Live unchanged. If one already exists, refiroo continues your newest open change set instead of asking for another name.
  3. Check the amber band for the change-set name. The Live band can also identify Your change set and its count. Make the correction with the ordinary field or record form; the save goes into the change set.
  4. Open Review changes and check every proposed record and relationship. Your change set is shared with other authorised workers, so it can contain work beyond your latest edit.
  5. Submit it for publication where offered, or ask someone holding Publish in this workspace to publish it. Submission freezes editing until withdrawal or send-back.

A Reader sees You can read this workspace and whom to ask, rather than proposal controls. Narrowed permissions show actions only for the covered types. Check Account › What you can do if an expected offer is absent. A publication and a retired workspace remain read-only.
