Each part of book is going through different status:
1) Work in progress : - When the user add or update data on the related part of book, that part of the book will be on this status. At this time admin level users are not allowed to add/edit/delete the part. But they can view the data.
2) Submitted for approval : - When the editor or employee submit the book part for approval, it will be on this status. Now the admin can manage the data and approve or reject the part as they need.
On this status, the editor/employee can't do anything on the part.
3) Approved : - This state means the part of the book has been approved by admin and no more edits allowed. So users can only view the details of the part.
