Overview

Commitments are contractual obligations extracted from your contracts — for example, delivery requirements, option exercises, or scheduled release commitments. The Commitments tab gives you a single view across all contracts in your project, so you can track what has been committed to and link those obligations to specific recordings or compositions in your catalog.

Accessing Commitments

Navigate to Catalog → Commitments using the asset tabs at the top of the Catalog section. Commitments appear alongside Recordings, Compositions, and Products.

What You See

The Commitments table shows one row per commitment, with the following columns:

Commitment Types

Use the Search field to find commitments by title. Results update as you type (search activates after 2 characters).

Filters

Click Filter to narrow the list. You can combine multiple filters: The filter button shows a count of active filters. Click Clear All inside the filter panel to reset.

Sort

Click Sort to change the order of the list:

Linking Assets to Commitments

Each commitment can be linked to recordings and compositions from its contract. Linking lets you see exactly which catalog assets fulfil a given contractual obligation.
1

Open the Link Assets sheet

In the Linked Assets column, click on the asset names for a commitment that already has links, or click the three-dot menu on any row and choose Link Contract Assets.
2

Select recordings and compositions

The sheet shows all recordings and compositions from the commitment’s contract. Switch between the Recordings and Compositions tabs. Check the assets that correspond to this commitment.
Assets already linked to another commitment in the same contract are not available for selection, as each asset can only be linked to one commitment.
3

Save

Click Continue to save. The Linked Assets column updates immediately.

Row Actions

The three-dot menu on each row provides:

Commitments and End Dates

Linking assets to commitments affects how calculated end dates are computed. When a commitment has linked assets, the system can produce end dates scoped to that specific commitment — so different commitments with different terms produce different end dates for their respective assets.
Adding, removing, or reassigning commitment links triggers an automatic recalculation of all calculated end dates on the contract. Any manual edits to end dates will be overwritten. Link all assets to the correct commitments first, then make manual date adjustments.

Where Commitments Come From

Commitments are extracted automatically when you upload a contract. The AI identifies obligations, option periods, and delivery requirements, and structures them as commitments attached to that contract. To review or edit commitments on a specific contract, open the contract in Contract Details and navigate to the structured data section.

Recordings

Master recordings you can link to commitments.

Compositions

Musical works you can link to commitments.
