The Process Approval Workflow (PAW) module introduces an added layer of accountability, requiring process changes to be approved before they can be published and recording process approvals in the changelog.

If you don’t have the PAW module, you can still enable Publish Only mode. Instead of selecting a state for your process during editing (In Progress, Published, Archived) users can select a [Publish] button in the save dialogue box to immediately publish their changes.

With PAW mode active, you can also enable a [Publish Now] button on the dashboard for authorised users, which bypasses the approval system. When a process is published or archived this way, the changelog reflects the approvals given and those bypassed. Enabling the auto process publish setting eliminates the need for a separate publisher. Once a process is fully approved, it will publish automatically.
