Assets

This section allows for the administrator to process assets that have been uploaded by Asset Authors. When notification is received from the system that an asset has been uploaded, this will be the area where the asset will be held, awaiting approval.

Assets uploaded by Asset Authors will be shown RED (unapproved). To administer the content, click on the ‘Details’ button. This page will be familiar to Administrators as it is the same as that for adding new assets.

As an Administrator, you can make any amendments you like to any of the asset content. Once you have completed your changes, simply click the ‘Save’ button. This will then direct you back to the Assets list where a click on the RED button will change the status of the asset to GREEN (approved). This file will now be placed in the master library for searching.

If you are not happy with the asset, in the asset editing page, next to the ‘Save’ button is a ‘Delete’ button. This can be used to delete the asset. Prior to deletion, you may wish to contact the Asset Author or Administrator who uploaded the file. In the editing screen you will see ‘Uploaded By: (name)’. This is a dynamic email link to the user.

Alternatively, you can choose the ‘Delete’ option next to the asset on the master Assets list.

TIP: To easily locate the file that you wish to administer, use the standard MediaStore search routine. When you search for assets as an administrator, your results will be shown as with all other MediaStore users, with the exception of an ‘Edit this Asset’ icon under the dynamic thumbnail. By clicking this icon, you will be directed to the Edit Asset page as before. Please complete the process of editing you assets as outlines earlier in this section.

TIP: You have two additional options on this screen. To the right of the screen, you can click ‘Add Asset’ to enter the add asset area. Additionally, you can choose to filter the assets by their status, ‘Approved’ or ‘Unapproved’.
