Float and Lock

Documents that are related by a float and lock relationship type remain related the same way that non-version specific related documents do, but only during their authoring phases. When each document reaches a major version, the relationship is locked down and does not progress. If one of the documents is incremented to a new minor version, a user can re-establish the relationship manually or it can be re-established automatically based on the Manage Lifecycle Reset of Parent configuration that is discussed later in this guide.
