Request to Publish – Click this icon to request to share a UDO. An approver then reviews it and can approve it to be shared with other users.
Reserve – Click this icon to reserve an existing UDO to which you want to make changes. Reserving it ensures that no one else can edit it while you make your changes. You then resubmit the UDO, with your changes, for approval.
Delete – Click this icon to delete the UDO from your own list of UDOs. This does not delete it from other users’ ability to view it.
