A Revision Configuration (REVCON) element ties all of the configuration (Revision Block Definition [REVBLD] and Revision Number Definition [REVNOD]) elements together.
A Revision Control configuration is created using the Edit Revision Configuration option from a manually created REVCON.
Right-click the REVCON element in the Dictionary Explorer, select Edit Revision Configuration from the drop-down menu to display the Revision Configuration window.

The Revision Configuration window defines the element types controlled by this configuration. It drives the selection of a Status Definition and also the States transition, within this Status Definition, at which to both create new Working Revisions and Issue Revisions.
Note:
For COR, the Issue state should be the one that flushes data up to the highest level
extract, where it becomes available for other disciplines to consume.
