Approval and Change History | SharePoint Tutorial pdf

Approval and Change History

The Problem Reports list tracks the change history of each item – that’s one of the main features of the Issue Tracking template – so versioning is On by default. To enable change history for other list types:
· Click Versioning settings on the list Settings page and select Yes under the Item Version History section (Figure).
Figure: Use the Versioning settings to enable change history and to require content approval.

Use the Content Approval option when you want to control what items appear in a list. I use that setting in Discussion Board lists that are open to the public – I want to review all posts before they appear on my web site.
Enabling Content Approval adds a view to the list that lets the site owner approve, reject, or delete items submitted to the list. It’s a good idea to set an alert on lists that require content approval so you know when something is pending your approval.
