Document Status Indicators
You can view the assignment status of an assigned document or a document placeholder, and the superseded status of an assigned document. A document with a superseded status is identified by the red label: Newer Version Available.
The assignment status is determined by the binding options and the values and availability of documents in the repository, as follows:
- The assignment status indicates whether the file you want to bind to the assembly is available in the repository.
- The superseded status, indicated by a red label that says Newer Version Available, indicates whether a document available in the repository is more recent than the document assigned in the assembly.
When you assign a document to an assembly, it is added to the assembly tree and its icon indicates its status. The following table identifies the document status icons.
| Icon | Meaning | Description |
|---|---|---|
|
Bound | The document exists, it has content and the binding rule has been satisfied. |
|
Unassigned | This is a document placeholder; it indicates that no document has been assigned. |
|
Superseded | The document exists, it has content and the binding rule has been satisfied, however a newer version of the document exists. |
|
Missing version | A version of the document exists that is different from the one specified by the binding rule. |
|
Missing | No version of the assigned document exists. |
|
Missing content | The document exists and the binding rule has been satisfied, however the document has no content associated with it. This can occur if a virtual document has been assigned from the repository. |
