The Draft object is associated with the role, Creators. The Creators role is associated with the groups: grpConsultants, grpMarketing, and grpSales. At the Draft state, only users who are in the role Creators can carry out the actions permitted by the role Creators (see Figure 5-2 for the actions selected for the role Creator). Users who are in the Creators role are users who are defined in the grpConsultants, grpMarketing, and grpSales user groups. 

If your user’s privilege allows you to edit a document, but you are not in the Creators role, you can read the document, but the system does not allow you to checkout the document or transition it from the Draft to the Review state. 

## Transition authentication option 

When defining the life cycle map, you can require a user to authenticate when the user transitions a document from one state to another. The system prompts the user to enter their user name and password. This can serve as an electronic signature. Figure 5-7 shows an example of state transition from Approved to Issued, which requires authentication.
