start using this workflow. A workflow will then start when a document is checked out and the
actual workflow instance is started.
A local copy of roles are stored on the category and can be maintained by the editor, however all the business rules of the workflow is entirely controlled by the actual workflow definition that can be shared among many categories and applications.
