Rights Review and Approve

When something is updated or uploaded in a book, the particular book will not be Auto-Distributed. So, when you update the existing Rights of a book, the book will be transferred to the Rights Review and Approve screen. Distribution of Rights updated books have to be done manually.

The Rights Review and Approve screen has a Filter Bar with which you can sort the books by Channel, Title or Author.
