From the Pending Delete page, users can easily view and update all PDX assets that are pending deletion.
Navigating Pending Delete
Anything in the Pending Delete state means that it's targeted for deletion by PDX automation that is run at an interval.
The information on the Pending Delete page is divided by provider and type of asset.
On the left of the page is the list of providers with assets pending title.
To the right of those providers are the number of assets pending title in each of the ten categories.
- All Types - All Assets for that provider.
- Video - Video Assets.
- Audio - Audio Assets.
- CC/Sub - Close Captions and Subtitles, but also includes Forced Narratives and SDH Assets.
- Image - All title artwork assets.
- Doc - Documents associated with open orders.
- QC Report - Reports provided when checking assets for quality control.
- Other/Unknown - Assets that don't fall in the above categories.
- Font - Font files used with assets
- Archive/Project - .tar or archive file formats that represent large amounts of work that need to be unpacked and ingested.
Clicking on any number from this graph, including in the bolded total section, will load all corresponding assets at the bottom of the page.
From the list of assets that appear, one can choose to change several at a time by clicking the check mark icons on the left. When active, they appear blue.
Next to that is the little paper icon you can click to check or leave notes.
Under asset type, one can see the file name in blue. Clicking the filename will bring up the Asset Details window, where one can view and edit all metadata for this asset.
For title, one will either find the title the asset is for, or a blue "Select Title" button. Either way, clicking on the title or the blue Select Title button will bring up a Search for title bar.
In this space you can type and select a title. Switching between the TV, Film, Trailer, and Bonus in the provided field will allow users to view corresponding titles.
Action Buttons
To the Right of the Screen, above the list of assets, are two gray buttons.
- Clicking on the one with the magnifying glass icon will allow a user to type in and search keywords to more easily filter through the search results.
- The arrow pointing to the side icon is the CSV Report button. Clicking on it will allow the user to download a report with all information on the asset by provider page.
