Update release phases
Keep Distribution, Pitching, SMM, and Design progress tied to the real work.
Open the release and select Phases. Read the state and latest note for Distribution, Pitching, SMM, or Design. The summary also shows readiness and accountable work.
Select the phase row you are allowed to edit.
Choose the state that matches the actual work.
Add the relevant note or change context.
Submit the update and check that it is reflected in the release.
Operational changes can create routed attention and tasks for responsible teams. Blocking workflow transitions create work; ordinary progress does not create a task for every field change. Use the existing task before creating a duplicate request.
Planning hold is available under More actions for the appropriate role. Record why a release should not move forward so the next person can understand the constraint. A hold contributes to readiness.
The design team has uploaded a revised cover, but approval is still pending. Record the accurate phase state and the approval context. Move it to the approved state only when the decision has been made; uploading the file alone is not approval.
Phase editing follows the workspace's operational permissions. Ask Executive or Planning to check your team role and artist access.
