3. Select whether the type is active, whether it has its own field configuration, whether the document is to be published automatically when it is approved, and whether approving own documents is permitted. It is also possible in the form to define whether the review and approval statuses are to be required and/or available in the workflow for documents of that type. Click Save and close form to save your changes.
