Sector 10

The Sector Workflow configuration—part of the Starter Kit in Sector 10—is built on the Drupal core Workflow and Content Moderation modules. The Sector workflow assumes a simple publication strategy: a content editor creates and edits a draft until it is ready to be submitted for review. A content moderator then reviews the draft and either requests changes or publishes the draft. 

Need to get up to speed with workflows?
