Document phases are used in document records, and are incorporated into document review models. When a review is routed or completed, the phase may be changed to indicate the current step in the document workflow.
It is not necessary to link reviews to phases; however, it may be helpful for more complicated document models that incorporate many reviews. The progress of the document can be easily determined by looking at the document's current phase.
