The "Workflow" section of the editor lets you track progress on editing records. This lets you fill out the status of media quality, transcription, and metadata. Once you've added workflow information to a video entry, you can see progress on all video entries with the "My Workflow" Audio-Video feature. This overview helps you decide what to work on next. 

This brief screencast provides a walkthrough of workflow tracking.
