Workflows That Work Wonders

The workflow manager also keeps an ongoing record of all the activity—images scanned, proofs produced—on which R.R. Donnelley bases its billing for the NM Direct work. DataFlow automatically creates a job ticket for every piece of the catalog as the catalog is being produced. How? The system interfaces with the creative department, so that, as graphics are produced, copy is written and pages put out, the status can be checked by any member of the production team at any time.
