Task promotion has implicit checks for the following conditions:

If no content has been changed on the task when promotion is initiated, a Promote Task pop-up notification states the there are no changes to promote.

Press Return to Task (or press the X in the upper right corner) to close the pop-up.

If content changes have been made but any of the other conditions are not yet satisfied when promotion is initiated, a Promote Task pop-up notification shows their statuses, with action options to cancel the promotion, or to continue if task changes are considered sufficiently safe to update the project level content without satisfying these conditions.

Press Return to Task (or press the X in the upper right corner) to close the pop-up and cancel the promotion without changing project content or the task status.Press Promote Anyway to continue promotion.

Promoting tasks with warnings

Pressing Promote Anyway is tacit acceptance of any warning statuses, with implied responsibility for by-passing these safeguards and the consequent unclassified and/or unreviewed content changes that will be promoted from the task to the project level.

Promoting unclassified content changes is a quality assurance risk that can be avoided relatively easily, since it typically takes less than ten minutes to run classification (if only to confirm no results).

However, there are occasions when it is clear that inferred classification results won't change, such as a description-only content change, in which case this option may be acceptable.

By-passing review may also be acceptable under particular circumstances, for instance if the author is also the project manager / project lead.

This scenario can be prevented by setting the task as Complex and also having Review Completed set as a mandatory task-level SAC requirement within its parent project configuration, since task promotion in this case will not be enabled without a completed review.

A "Promoting task..." notification is presented in the page header whilst branch content changes are merged to the project level.

During promotion, the task content branch is locked to prevent any further changes, and a warning notification is presented below the Edit Task Details action button in the Task Details panel.

Whilst this is present, changes cannot be made to the content saved in the task branch, and action buttons other than Edit Task Details and Submit for Review become inactive.

Once task promotion is completed, a "Task successfully promoted for \" notification is presented in the page header.

Following promotion no further changes are allowed on the task content branch, all action buttons in the Task Details panel become inactive, and a warning notification is presented below the now inactive Edit Task Details action button.
