## What each status means

Every match moves through a few stages, and the status tells you where yours is right now.

| Status | What it means |
|-------|---------------|
| Draft or review | You can edit the setup, rallies, shots, and notes. |
| Pending | You've sent it, and it's waiting in the queue. |
| In progress | We've started tracking it. |
| Final review | We're checking it before it comes back to you. |
| Error | Something needs fixing before it can go on. |
| Finalized | It's done and ready to feed your insights. |

## While tracking is running

After you send a match, the editor swaps to a waiting panel instead of the usual tools. If your match is still pending, you can usually cancel it — but once we start tracking, you can't cancel anymore.

If the players need fixing before we start, you can still open the setup from that waiting panel.

## Check a finished match

When a match comes back finished, open it and look it over before you mark it done.

We'd recommend you check that:

- The rallies start and end at the right time.
- Each shot is tied to the right player.
- The winners, errors, and points are correct.
- Any notes you want are there.
- The data matches what you see in the video.

## If a match comes back with an error

Sometimes our team sends a match back to you. When that happens, the project opens with an **Action needed** banner that tells you exactly what to fix.

Most of the time, you'll need to:

- Fix the player setup.
- Adjust the segments.
- Recheck footage that was hard to see.
- Correct a setup detail that stopped tracking.

Once you've made the changes, choose **Resubmit for review** on the project page and we'll pick it back up.

## Finished matches

A finished match counts as complete, so it powers your dashboard and your insights.

You can't send a finished match for tracking again as it is — open it for review first, make your changes, and then send it.
