# UTM Naming Template Suite — Quick Start

Use this suite as the **pre-build naming control layer**. It exists to hold governed values, row state, ownership, exception handling, and build handoff before final URLs go live.

## Start here
1. Open the workbook if more than one person will touch the launch.
2. Use **Launch Rows** for active requests.
3. Keep **Approved Values** protected or limited to governance owners.
4. Use **Approval Signoff** when a row is ready for naming signoff before build.
5. Log one-off naming changes in **Exception Register** instead of free-typing them into the row.
6. Move retired or superseded rows into **Archive**.

## This suite owns
- row-by-row naming control
- column structure and required fields
- lifecycle state
- role boundaries
- version tags for reruns and migrations
- exception visibility
- pre-build signoff

## This suite does not own
- final URL assembly
- batch building
- QA validation of final links
- redirect survival
- post-launch reporting interpretation
- full campaign evidence logging

## Next handoff
- Build the final link in the **UTM Builder** or **Bulk UTMs**
- Validate final link structure in the **UTM QA Checker**
- Check redirect survival in the **Redirect Checker**
- Log published evidence in the **Campaign Tracking Spreadsheet**
