  To use draft promotion, users must first create a draft version of the customer business plan. This can be done by selecting the “Create Draft” option from the CBP menu. Once the draft is created, users can make any necessary changes and then promote it to the active version by selecting the “Promote Draft” option.

  When creating a draft version of a customer business plan, it is important to make sure that all changes are saved before promoting it to the active version. This will help ensure that all changes are reflected in the active version. Additionally, it is important to remember that only one draft version can be promoted at a time, so users should make sure that they are promoting the correct version.
