Configuring the default status for assets
As the asset progresses through your quality control workflow, its status can be changed
accordingly on the Asset Management page. When an asset is defined with a Ready To Air
status, the Asset Details on the Asset Management page can no longer be edited. To make
changes to the asset, a user must change the status to Action Required or New so edits can
be performed.
If you want to limit who has the authority to change the status of an asset, you can create a
user group which grants permission to change the status of the asset and disallow that
functionality from other user groups (see the Operation Group called Asset Controls
Update Status in
If an asset is defined with a status of New or Action Required when it appears in a schedule,
a warning is triggered and visible on the Channel Control and Schedule Edit pages. The
warning will not prevent the event from going on air.
As assets are registered with GV STRATUS Playout, they are assigned a default status. If you
do not have a quality control workflow for the media files after they are registered as assets
with GV STRATUS Playout, the recommended default status is Ready To Air. Choosing it as a
default status will prevent the unnecessary triggering of the warning on the Channel
Control and Schedule Edit pages. Each time an update to an asset occurs such as through a
traffic system or GV STRATUS Playout Gateway, the status will automatically revert to the
default status configured for the account.
To configure the default status for newly registered assets:
1 In the top menu, click Settings.
2 Click the System Administration tab.
3 In the Default Asset Status list under Account Options, select one of the following:
• New: indicates that the asset has not been verified.
• Action Required: indicates that the asset has been verified, but issues with it have
been discovered and remain unresolved.
• Ready To Air: indicates that the asset has been verified and has been deemed
acceptable to go on air.
4 Click Update Details.
