### Document Lifecycles

Newly created documents of the following types now use the Draft to Current lifecycle:

### Connected Studies

With this release, the following documents are added to the available documents that can be sent to a sponsor or CRO on a connected study:

- Monitoring Visit Log documents in a **Current** state
- Participant Questionnaire documents in an **Approved for Use** state

### Participants

For Participant records in an **Active** status that were created before February 12, 2021, you can now update the status to **Candidate**. This enables you to use the new lifecycle to track the end-to-end status of study participants. In addition, a Lifecycle Stages Chevron panel is now displayed at the top of Participant records so that you can quickly identify the status of a participant.
