Read placement purpose
Synthetic campaign inventory has P35 homepage live, P36 session-detail live and P37 archived preview. Each has a usable rendition file, but local publishing manifest accepts live placements only. Preview file remains in the archive pack and is not a third live obligation.
| Placement | Purpose | Manifest disposition |
|---|---|---|
| P35 | Live homepage | Include |
| P36 | Live detail | Include |
| P37 | Archived preview | Exclude from live scope |
Build the live publishing scope
- Read all placement purpose fields
- Select P35/P36 live set
- Keep P37 archive reference
- Publish scope manifest for two placements
A file’s existence does not make its archived placement live.
How many live placements and retained archive references remain?
Show the worked answer
Two live placements and one archive reference. No file is deleted or historical preview rewritten.
Retain preview as reference only
| Case | Decision or result | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Issue all three as live | Reject expanded scope | P37 archived |
| Live 2/archive 1 | Accept scope | Purpose distinctions kept |
The publication checklist lists live placement IDs, while the handover archive lists preview IDs. Counts should state which purpose they measure.
