Explore pane.

Select the new or modified rule or ruleset from the
Explore pane.
The
State of the rule or ruleset will be shown as
In Progress with a blue indicator on the workflow status bar at the bottom of the workspace.

Select
Approval Requested from the
State drop-down list, then click

(Optional) Enter workflow comments when prompted. These comments will be shown in the Approver Activity List and the Author Activity List.

The workflow state color indicator changes from blue to yellow, indicating that the rule or ruleset has gone out for approval. In the
Approval Requested state, the rule or ruleset is locked by the review workflow and cannot be checked out for editing. Only the author that submitted the rule or ruleset for approval is allowed to change its state from
Approval Requested back to
In Progress. A rule or ruleset that is
In Progress can then be checked out by any author for further editing.
