Setting Due Dates

If a request needs a different deadline, you can set a custom due date for it.  


How to do it?

2. Go to Request Info

3. Set the Request Due Date 


This ensures that each request has the right deadline, depending on its priority and urgency.

Working with Due Dates


1. Request Prioritization

  • Requests are ordered chronologically, with the most urgent ones appearing first.  
  • This helps teams focus on what needs to be delivered soonest.

2. Color Codes for Quick Identification


  • Red → Overdue requests  
  • Orange → Due within the coming week  


This visual aid makes it easy to see what needs immediate attention.  


3. Quick View of Priorities


The quick view 'Due Soon' opens a priority list, which lists all the requests in order of priority. This gives a clear overview of what's next.

Expected Delivery Date


Content producers can set an Expected Delivery Date to indicate when they anticipate the content will be ready.  


How to view it?

1. Open the Request Info

2. The Producer fills in the Expected Delivery Date


This allows for better planning and coordination between teams.
