Standard Template workflow section fields

The /sitecore/Templates/System/Templates/Standard Template inherits its workflow section fields from the /sitecore/Templates/System/Templates/Sections/Workflow template. The inherited workflow section fields are:

Field

Value

Workflow

The workflow currently attached to the content item.

State

The current workflow state.

Lock

Defines whether or not the content item is locked by a user. If the content item is locked, this field shows the user and the time when the content item was locked.

Default workflow

The default workflow of the content item.

Assigning workflows to content items

Sitecore does not put new content items in a workflow by default. It only places content items in a workflow if the Default workflow field is set in the corresponding template's Standard Values.

The Workflow and State fields should be left blank for Templates, Branch, and __Standard values items.
