You can use Perforce labels, the equivalent of RCS tags unless you're 
talking about RCS state. You can use branching to represent your 
promotion model. Another common way is to add data in a structured 
format to the Description field of the change form and do everything by 
changelist. Yet another way is to use Perforce attributes. Another way 
would be to use Perforce jobs and customize the form. It all depends on 
how it fits in your overall process.
