Every listing has a status. It decides which tab the listing sits under in the app, whether it is on the site, and whether the site marks it.

## The statuses a new showcase has

With the Vehicles or General schema:

- **Available**: on the site, nothing marked. Under *For sale*.
- **Pending** and **On hold**: on the site, marked. Under *For sale*.
- **Sold**: on the site, marked *Sold*. Under *Sold*. A sold listing stays on the site until you hide it.
- **Hidden**: off the site. Under *Hidden*.

The Artwork schema has *Available*, *Collection* (shown and marked, not for sale), *Sold* and *Hidden*; Tools & equipment has *In the shop*, *Lent out*, *Out for repair* and *Hidden*. You can change any of them except Hidden, which every showcase has. See Statuses in the schema (SC-4).

Under the status, the form says what it means: *Sold: on the site, marked "Sold".* or *Hidden: not on the site.*

## Changing a status

- In the listing's form (**Edit**, the pencil), pick it under **Status**, then publish with the check mark.
- On the listings page, touch and hold a listing (right-click on the Mac) for **Mark Sold**, **Mark Pending** and the others, or **Hide**.

A menu choice is published at once.

## The status note

Under any status but the first, the form has a **Note**: who has it, when it's back. *Dave, back Oct 20.* The note is only in the app, sealed with your showcase's key, and never on the site. It shows on the listing's tile with a small lock.

When the listing comes back to the first status (*Available*, *In the shop*), the note is cleared.
