# Stage Settings

> Edit stage name, manage auto-assign, and redistribute teams within a stage.

Stage Settings lets you fine-tune a stage after your roadmap is created. Access it from the stage management page.

## What You Can Change

### Stage Name

Edit the display name of a stage. Useful when you want something more descriptive than "Stage 1" — for example, "Qualifier Round" or "Grand Finals".

### Auto-Assign

View and control the auto-assign feature for the stage:

* See whether auto-assign is enabled and when it last ran
* Toggle auto-assign on or off
* Trigger an immediate auto-assign run to distribute unassigned registrations into groups

### Redistribute Teams

Adjust how teams are distributed across groups without regenerating them from scratch:

* Change the invited slots handling strategy (Balanced, Stacked, Frontload)
* Change the fill strategy (Balanced, Sequential)
* Preview the redistribution before committing
* Commit the changes to apply them

This is useful when you need to rebalance groups after manual changes or when your initial distribution strategy isn't working as expected.
