Composer Pro: Edit Program, Don’t Delete
Friday, December 10th, 2010Changing your program schedule? Don’t delete that program!
For best results with Public Interactive Composer Pro, and for more accurate SoundExchange reports, always edit programs instead of deleting them.
It
is always best to edit programs and add a program end date to stop a program, rather than deleting it. When a program is deleted, playlists associated with a deleted program are orphaned, and historical data needed for SoundExchange reporting is lost. This is not good.
Here’s what we recommend:
- Program ending: Edit the program, choose recurring edit, and then add an end date for the program. The program will stop, and you’ll see the option to add a new program on your grid.
- Program changing time slot permanently: Edit the program, choose recurring edit, and add an end date for the program. Then go to the new time slot, and add the program same again.
