This support article will help you understand how to create a Work Order in ProStudio for workflow. This article includes a step-by-step guide with activities necessary to perform.

Introduction

In ProStudio for Workflow, the Work Order is the central planning tool. This is where you define what to shoot, when to shoot it, and who should be involved.

Prerequisites

The program has to be configured with all the relevant fields 

and statuses for the Work Order to function properly. These fields and statuses are defined when setting out the system for the first time. 

NOTE: If you work with live models you must have the model defined in order to select a Model when creating a Work Order. It is also important good to define the different studios that exist at your different locations.
