SDF File Lifecycle

The SDF File contains the post layout timing data.

The SDF File is created in the NotReady state and passes through the lifecycle states listed below. When a file is promoted, the app sends a message to the DesignSync server to tag the related object with the state name. You can quickly determine where a file is in the design process by looking at its tag.
