After making the desired content changes, press Begin Promotion Automation in the Task View - Task Details panel actions button list.
A "Preparing for task promotion automation..." notification is presented in the page header bar.
Unmet SAC items block automatic promotion
If the task has any Service Acceptance Criteria (SAC) items, task promotion will be blocked and the Begin Promotion Automation action button will not be enabled until all mandatory task-level SAC are met.
Role-based access controls apply to automatic promotion
If the user's authenticated account session roles do not include permissions for task promotion (such as when viewing another author's task), the Begin Promotion Automation action button will not be enabled.
The automated promotion process first checks to see if the task has been reviewed.
If a review has not yet been completed the Promote Task dialogue presents a warning message with calls to action to either continue or return to task editing and cancel the promotion.
Press Promote Anyway to continue the promotion process.
Press Return To Task to close the dialogue and stop the promotion process.
Task review check
The warning is only presented if a review has not been completed.
Task status
After pressing Begin Promotion Automation, the My Tasks view task Status column remains In Progress until the review check is completed.
Following the review check, the task is then placed in a promotion automation queue.
A notification panel showing "Automated promotion in progress: Status Queued" is presented between Edit Task Details and Classify in the Task View - Task Details panel actions button list.
An "Automated promotion: Queued" status icon is also presented in the page header bar.
|
When picked up from the queue, the task is checked to see if needs to be rebased.
If the task content is diverged from its parent project content, the process initiates a task rebase, and the notification panel changes to "Automated promotion in progress: Status: Rebasing".
If rebase completes with no conflicts, the auto-promotion process continues.
|
Task review check
If merge conflicts are found during rebase, the automatic promotion process is stopped, and the process notification changes to state that rebase conflicts must be resolved before restarting automatic promotion.
After confirming that the task does not have any rebase conflicts, classification is invoked to ensure all content changes are classified prior to promotion.
The process notification panel changes to "Automated promotion in progress: Status Classifying"
The page header bar icon changes to "Classification Running".
|
Unclassified content blocks auto-promotion
If classification results are found, the auto-promotion process is stopped, and the process notification panel changes to inform that classification results were detected, with an instruction to review and accept classification results before restarting the auto-promotion process.
The automation process proceeds with task promotion, following which a header notification states that automated promotion completed for the task.
At this point task actions become inactive, and the process notification panel changes to inform that the task has been promoted and no further changes are allowed.
|
Promoted tasks are hidden by default in the My Tasks view, however they can be brought into the view listing by checking the Show Promoted checkbox.
Their task status shows Promoted, with a blue background.
All historical promoted tasks are shown when the box is checked, not just the most recently promoted.
