Create In-Process Lifecycle Links

You can create lifecycle links by targeting a link to a document that exists in an assembly outside the current assembly. This includes an assembly in any other sequence and is not restricted to the current application.

For historical in-process links pointing to a submitted sequence, you can target a leaf, a document or bookmark. To create historical links from a working assembly to previously submitted content, the target assembly must have been published prior to adding to lifecycle. This sets the published output location on those leaf elements so that the appropriate relative path to the target may be determined.

Unless links are set to a document or a bookmark and any links targeting the old document get moved automatically to target the new document you assign under that leaf. The link is modified to point to the new location. In-process links created to a document or a bookmark will target to the location in previous sequence like it was selected when the link was created.

While links going to documents cannot target outside the current assembly/sequence, links going to leaf elements may target both old sequences and targets outside the current application. These links will have a status of Targeted even if the source document is not in the same assembly as the target document. They will be published as cross-application links according to the same rules that govern reference leaf elements.
