Content Status

Content Status allows you to easily track where Content and Initiatives are in their lifecycle. Status can be used as filters on any list or calendar to easily find just the most relevant content.

The different Status definitions are listed below:

Planned means the content asset or initiative will be worked on in the future and the creation process has not yet started. When you create a content asset or initiative, the asset is considered "Planned" in Kapost.

In Progress means the creation process has started. The status will automatically switch from Planned to In Progress when you check off the first task in the workflow. You can also update the status manually.

Complete means the content asset or initiative is complete and the creation process is finished. When all of the tasks are checked off in a workflow, Kapost will automatically ask if you'd like to set the status to complete. You can also update the status manually.

To know more about status, refer to Stages vs Statuses.
