Automatic Status Change
Paligo can automatically change the status of your content when an assignment begins, and in the case of review assignments, also when they finish. This saves you from having to change the state manually to progress your content through the stages of the production workflow.
To set up automatic state changes:
-
Use the default settings for assignments to set Paligo to change the state automatically. You can tell Paligo what action to take when an assignment starts and also when it ends.
For details, see Automatic Change of Release Status.
-
Use assignments for your review tasks.
Note
Setting up automatic state changes for the workflows can be convenient, but should be considered carefully. In some situations, it can be preferable to change the state manually, for example, if you have many different variants reusing the same topics. In this scenario, changing the state manually gives you more precise control over the stages of the variants.
