Changeovers
A Changeover is a first-class record — a structured transition event when one cast hands off to another.
The Changeover Record
- Outgoing Cast
- Incoming Cast
- Planned handover date
- Status: Planning → In Progress → Cleared → Complete
- Generated checklist (see below)
The Diff-Driven Checklist
When a Changeover is created, the system compares outgoing and incoming rosters role by role:
- Same performer → no tasks generated
- New performer → reads that role's Handover Task Template and generates concrete tasks
- Role vacant in incoming cast → flagged as issue
Only changing roles generate tasks. Tasks are grouped by role and scoped by department (wardrobe sees wardrobe tasks, audio sees audio tasks).
Clearance Sign-Off
Cast clearance — formal approval to perform — requires all generated checklist items to be complete. This is a hard gate, not advisory.
On clearance:
- Incoming Cast status moves to Performing.
- Outgoing Cast status moves to Completing.
- Assets assigned to roles update to reflect new performers.
- Changeover record closes.
