Navigation: GOLDDeploy Management Screen > Subscriptions tab > Create New Subscription / Update Subscription field group >
Select the radio button that describes how you expect the installation to take place.
•An Automatic subscription means that, when a new version of this product is received, it is automatically scheduled for delivery to the subscribed targets without requiring any intervention.
•A Manual subscription means that,when a new version of the product is received, a schedule is created, but no release date is assigned. It waits for a user to schedule the installation.
For example, a bank may want any new versions of a product to be immediately installed on a beta test machine (automatic) but may choose to wait until testing has been completed before manually scheduling the update to be installed on production machines (manual).
