Update Assembly Status

.When you update an assembly status to the effective status as defined by your system administrator, the assembly is locked and its version label is set to Current, which may already be assigned to another assembly version in the version tree.

Updating as assembly status to the effective status has limitations and consequences. Once the assembly version has an effective status, only an administrator can change the assembly status and status date. If the administrator changes an effective status to a non-effective status, the assembly remains locked until the administrator unlocks it. To work around this, you can create a new assembly version and make changes to the new version.

If after the administrator unlocks a non-effective status assembly you change the assembly to an effective status again the assembly is not relocked. You must lock the assembly.

If you change a noneffective status to an effective status on an assembly version, the version label of the assembly version is set to CURRENT.

If the assembly version being set to the effective status is not the latest version for the assembly, the version label for the latest version of the assembly with the CURRENT version is set to blank, or if a previous version of the assembly has the effective status, its version label is set to SUPERSEDED.

If the administrator changes an assembly version's effective status to a noneffective status:

— The assembly version label changes to blank unless the assembly is the latest version and no other version has an effective status.

— The CURRENT version label is assigned to an effective assembly with the most recent version number in the version tree.

— The label is set to blank if the assembly version had a label of SUPERSEDED.

If a reference location exists in the DMS repository for the version of the assembly, the reference location that corresponds to the CURRENT assembly version is made current in the DMS repository. In some instances, this may require the creation of a new version of the reference location.
