The Status tab helps you track layout tickets by indicating their status in the creation process. You can customize the Status tab to efficiently monitor layout tickets.
You can choose which columns to display and hide. Click System > Preferences (Windows) or Layout Automation Manager > Preferences (Mac) to set the visible columns. To arrange the columns in a specific order, drag and drop the columns as required.
Customizing your environment
Customize your Status tab by creating your own lists of layout tickets and organizing the tab's columns.
You can create lists to help you group and organize layout tickets. You can create smart lists, which are automatically populated based on criteria such as Customer Name, Date, or Custom Fields, or standard lists.
States of layout creation
There are many states in the layout creation process. You may want to monitor only a few states, such as "Error" and "Failed."
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Unknown | Layout ticket has been created |
| Not Found | Layout ticket was not found in the database |

| Running | Layout is being created |
| Canceled | Layout creation was canceled |
| Failed | Failed to create layout |
| Completed | Layout was created successfully |
| Completed with warning | Layout was created successfully, but some data was assumed. For example, no assignment information was given, so artwork was assigned to all positions in the die. Note: To view the assumed data, double-click the layout ticket in the Status tab, and review the Information pane. |
