### {i18n}State Effects{/i18n}

{i18n arg_appname="$appname"}One of the reasons that workflow is so key to the way #appname# is used is that states can have a variety of effects on the way other systems work. For example: workflow states can override the permissions on a document, and reaching a state can cause notifications to be sent out.{/i18n}

{i18n}Security{/i18n}
  {i18n}When a document is in a workflow state, that state can override some or all of the permissions that would "normally" be assigned to the document (e.g. via the folder it is in). It can also restrict which document actions are available.{/i18n}
{i18n}Notifications{/i18n}
  {i18n}In order to progress through a workflow, a document will usually require collaboration between a number of different users. One way to help this process is to inform certain groups or roles about the document's current state.{/i18n}
