27 | * | |
28 | * States are used in Kuali Student to decribe where the entity is | |
29 | * within a lifecycle. | |
30 | * | |
31 | * For example: A new course may be created in a "draft" state, then | |
32 | * move to a "submitted" state for review until it is finally | |
33 | * "approved". | |
34 | * | |
35 | * Most of validation of the the fields on the entity should be based | |
36 | * on state in combination with the entity's type. | |
