Comala Publishing - showing document approval data

[Katherine Lord]

When using Comala Document Management with Comala Publishing.

We approve in the collaboration space and then the workflow trigger the publishing to the target publioshed space.  In the target published space it does not show as approved anywhere and does not show the document approval macro of approver and date.  How is this information seen in the published space?

We do not want an auditor to be in the collaboration space hence need to see all the published metadata in the target space

Hello @Katherine Lord ,

We have a Change History Table App for Comala Document Management that reports the approvals inside the page and also works in published pages, see https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1228268/softcomply-change-history?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

Hi @Katherine Lord 

I'm running Document Approval with Publishing, the setup is otherwise identical to yours.

Approval apps are designed to control workflows in one single space. In combination with Publishing, my understanding is the idea is that whatever is in the Target space is considered Approved.

Which is the case, isn't it, setting a document to Approved triggers Publishing which pushes the Approved page to the target space.

The lifecycle docs management takes place in the source space - both the Approval and the Publishing app give us the tooling to see which pages are in which stage (approved / not approved, synced / out of sync).

As for the date of 'approval' in the target space, the synced date and the last updated date are identical.

It seems that you can set up the Approval app in the target space but that would, in my opinion, defy the purpose of the Approval > Publishing setup.
