Assembly line (stages)

Big work can be split into stages. Each stage is done by a different designer, one after the other. For example: stage 1 Film editing, stage 2 Colour and sound.

  • Stage 2 opens only when stage 1 is sent.
  • Each designer gets a message when their stage is ready.
  • When the last stage is sent, the whole work comes to you to check (Internal Review).

Split work into stages

You can do this only while the work is Unassigned or Assigned.

  1. Click Board in the menu. Find the card in Unassigned.
