The campaign went out with last week’s artwork, and the approval was a thumbs-up in a chat.
For marketing managers
Approve the work, not the email thread.
Artwork and media plans can reach you one version at a time, through a link, with no account to set up. Your own marketing spend is checked against the budget before anyone approves it.

What it looks like now

The media plan you approved and the invoices you are paying are in different folders.
03
The marketing budget is a spreadsheet, and it is out of date before the quarter is.
What changes
What you get, and where it shows up
Your answer is tied to the file
When your studio or agency sends artwork or a plan through a link, it shows one version. Your answer is recorded against that exact file, with the address it went to and the time.
More on thisSpend checked before it is committed
A spend request is checked against the budget when it is raised, and the money is committed the moment it is approved, with the agency’s quote and invoice on the request.
More on thisBills you can read back
When your agency books media through Media Bookings, each bill is per booking order: net, commission, gross, VAT and total, worked out to the cent.

Try the spend rule
Lines with VAT against a budget line, routed by your approval limits and committed on approval.
No spend without the right signature.Requests arrive priced from stock, with the department budget in front of the approver. Over your threshold, a second signature is required before anything moves.
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.
Book the plan the client approved.Every plan submission is the next version with its own PDF. A media director signs it off, the client approves that PDF by link, and booking orders are made from the approved lines, never a working copy.
