2. Click Details for the requirement you want to work with.
3. Review the draft, and when it is ready for approval, click Submit for Approval.

   The Submitting for Approval pop-up dialog opens.

4. Select one of the following Version Type options:

   Minor

   Specifies that the updates are small changes, such as editorial changes or field changes such as entering the Actual Effort. The version changes by one point (0.1).

   Major

   Specifies that the updates are significant, such as changing the release associated with the requirement, or changing the scope of the requirement. The version changes by one full version number (1.0).
