Accepted – A submission should be in accepted status when it has been submitted and is ready to be evaluated by a reviewer. Setting a submission to accepted will prompt an email letting the submitter know that they will be advancing to the evaluation round. You can edit the content of this email under Event Details> Manage Email Templates> Submission Accepted Email. This email can be turned off at any time. Submissions cannot be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

Closed – A submission should be marked as closed in situations like removing test submissions. These submissions will not be visible to reviewers. Submissions cannot be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

Denied – A submission should be marked as denied if they are not to advance to the evaluation round. Setting a submission to denied may prompt an email letting the submitter know that they will not be advancing to the evaluation round. You can edit the content of this email under Event Details> Manage Email Templates> Submission Denied Email. This email can be turned on and off at any time. Submissions cannot be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

Incomplete – Submissions will be automatically marked as “Incomplete” when a submitter clicks “Save and Logout”. Note, this is not a status you can assign to a submission but is instead system generated upon clicking “Save and Logout”. Submissions can be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

New – A submission will be in new status if a submitter has started a submission without creating an account and saving and exiting. This is useful for knowing how much traffic your event is getting.

Pending – This is a dynamic status that can be used for quite a few reasons. It is also a status that is assigned manually by an administrator. Often times this status is used when a submission is reopened for edit ability. For example, between rounds, missing information, etc. Submissions can be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

Ready – A submission will be ready once it has been submitted by a submitter. Submissions can be edited in this status by default. This can be changed under the Event Config.

New – This is a submission status that gets marked when a submission is first created and HAS NOT saved and logged out or submitted. This is a legacy status that will be removed in a future release. If you are looking to an idea on how many submissions have started but not finished, please use the “Incomplete” submission status.
