The Initial to Final lifecycle is for documents that have been approved externally and are already in their Final version. This lifecycle allows documents to reach their steady state without going through an approval workflow.
The following Documents Types follow this lifecycle:
- Executed Records
- Form > Paper Executed Form
- External Documents
- All QMS Documents
