Before creating a workspace,
consider if you
can use an existing workspace. That is, try to combine the work assigned
to a content contributor into fewer workspaces where possible. Only
create a new workspace if explicitly separating certain tasks is important
for the activities you are planning.
Tip: For
as long as a workspace remains inactive, you can reuse its task groups
and tasks in other workspaces by simply copying them into the other
workspaces as needed. That is, by keeping an inactive workspace with
common task groups and tasks, you can use it as a custom workspace
template for copying common task groups and tasks into other workspaces.
See Creating workspace templates for more information.

logged in to the Workspace Management tool as one of the following

name and description helps identify the workspace among other existing
workspaces.

| Option | Description |
|---|
| Single-use | Use a single-use
workspace when you only want to use the workspace
for one group of activities. Once the workspace moves into the complete
state, the resources used by the workspace, such as the database schema,
are released. |
|---|
| Persistent |
Use a persistent workspace for activities with an ongoing
or repeating nature. The workspace never moves into the complete state
and the resources used by the workspace are never released. |

- Optional: Select Emergency fix to
have the workspace ignore the set workspace locking policy. Ignoring
the workspaces locking policy allows you to changed managed assets
that are locked.
