When a title is Direct Assigned to a Favorite Editor, it will appear in this status until the editor reviews the job details and accepts or declines the job. (An editor has about 48 hours from the time you assign the job to make a decision.)
The Editor Accept Deadline shows how long the editor has remaining before the system will cancel the request. If the job is for editing only (the content was not written by a Zerys writer), the system will automatically return the job to your Assign Titles queue so you can assign it to another editor. If the content was written by a Zerys writer and the editor does not except their assignment, the job will move to your Pending Review.
As soon as an editor accepts a Direct Assignment, it will move to “Editor - In Progress” status.
