What's the difference between saving and submitting?

Updated

Short answer

A draft saves by itself while you work, and only you and your team can see it. Submitting sends the release to Kakorri: we check it and prepare delivery to the stores.

A draft saves by itself and stays on Kakorri. Submitting sends it to us: we check it, prepare delivery, and it turns Live once the stores have it.

Saving: a draft

  • The upload page saves as you work. The top of the page says Saved when it's done.
  • Leave whenever you like. Your drafts are under My Music › Drafts.
  • A draft is only on Kakorri. No store sees it.

Submitting

  • Review and submit shows a summary of the release before it's sent.
  • After that the status is In review: we check every release before it goes to the stores, and we email you when we're done. Then it's Sent while the stores take it in, and Live once it's out. Nothing more is needed from you.
  • If your profile is linked to a label that approves releases, the label approves it first.
  • The status turns to Live only once the stores have it.

Need a change while we check it? Open the release from My Music and choose Move to drafts in the ⋯ menu at the top. Change it, then submit it again.
