# Readiness

> The four facts Socialoo keeps per version, and why they are separate.

Source: https://socialoo.tech/docs/readiness/

Socialoo does not squeeze readiness into a single status. It keeps four facts per version and shows them side by side.

| Fact | States |
| --- | --- |
| Recording | Not planned, planned, recorded |
| Finished version | Missing, raw only, export available, not accessible |
| Review | Not reviewed, approved |
| Publication | Undated, planned, overdue, published |

## Why separate

A date does not mean the content exists. A recording does not mean it has been reviewed. A horizontal master does not make a vertical version available, and a raw take is not a finished export.

When Socialoo has no check result for a linked file, it says **Unknown**. It does not show a green tick.

## Overdue

A release whose date has passed without being confirmed shows as **overdue**. It stays where it is; nothing reschedules itself.

## The Now strip

Above every view: **Record next**, **Publishing in the next 7 days** and **Missing**. Each is a live count and each one filters the plan when you click it.
