Work goes to the client straight from the artist’s desktop, because the deadline was today.
For art directors and studio leads
Nothing reaches the client without your sign-off.
Every upload is the next version, and each one comes to an art director before the client sees it. Changes go back to the artist with your comment, and nobody signs off their own work.

There is a file called final_v3_FINAL on the server, and nobody is sure it is the one that was signed off.

Studio feedback lives in chat, so the next version repeats the last mistake.
What changes
What you get, and where it shows up
Studio sign-off comes first
Each version comes to an art director before the account manager can send it. Never the artist, and never whoever raised the job.
More on thisEvery version kept
Every upload is the next version, numbered by the job. Earlier versions stay with their review, decision and comment, and nothing is replaced.
More on thisThe studio on one screen
Artwork Approvals opens on what is waiting on you, beside the jobs in the studio, with the client and in production. Every figure opens what it counts.

Where to next
Try the artwork rule
Send a version back and watch the next one numbered. Nobody signs off their own artwork.
Show the client one file, and keep their answer.You own the client and what was sold. Koldheim sends each artwork version to the client through a link that shows that version only, pins their answer to the file they saw, and keeps every estimate revision.
The printer gets the approved file, and only that file.Once the client approves, the supplier is emailed a link that opens the approved file and nothing else. You record the proof, production and dispatch, and the client confirms what arrived.
