Content Status Explained
Each content item moves through defined Content Statuses based on where it sits in the production and review workflow.
These statuses are automatically updated as tasks are completed.
Status | Description |
Planning | The initial stage where content has been approved for drafting. During this phase, content briefs are automatically generated and can be edited before being sent to creators. |
In Progress | Active stage where work is being completed on the content including initial drafts, reviews and feedback. |
Partial Live | Some content has been published or made available, but not all parts or aspects are live. |
Live | Most, if not all, of the content pieces are published and live on their relevant cites. |
Cancelled | Content has been cancelled and will not proceed further. Once cancelled, the content no longer generates any automation from PubSuite including To-Do's, automated reporting, and email notifications. Content will also automatically be marked as 'Cancelled' if the associated campaign is cancelled. |
On Hold | Content is temporarily paused, awaiting review or further action before proceeding. Users can manually resume content at any time by adjusting the 'On Hold' status. |
Distribution Status Explained
Each Distribution Item (i.e. individual output tied to a product - such as an article or Instagram post) also moves through a series of statuses, showing you where it is in the distribution pipeline.
Status | Description |
Planning | Users can review and edit the brief and mark it ready for production once satisfied. |
Ready For Production | Users submit the brief for production. |
In Production | Content Editors draft content and submit. |
