Automated Job Management
Every order becomes a job ticket automatically. Track production from prepress to dispatch with QR codes, automated status updates, and real-time shop floor visibility.
Running Production on Paper Tickets Means Something Gets Lost or Misread Every Week.
Manual, Paper-Based Process
- Orders communicated to production by email or printed order forms: easy to miss, easy to misread.
- No shop floor visibility: managers walk the floor to check what's running and what's waiting.
- Time per stage tracked by memory or not at all. Labour costs for individual jobs are guesswork.
- Job status updates involve chasing operators or checking a whiteboard that's three steps behind.
- Artwork files and job specs stored separately from the job: operators hunt for the right version every time.
Automated, End-to-End Job Management
- Every order becomes a structured digital job ticket automatically, with specs, artwork, substrate, and deadline all attached.
- Operators scan the QR code on the ticket at each stage. Status updates appear in PrintERP the moment they scan.
- Time per stage is logged automatically at every QR scan. Actual labour costs per job are real, not estimated.
- Managers see the entire production floor in real time without leaving their desk.
- Workflow rules trigger next steps automatically: ticket created, notify prepress; job complete, alert dispatch.

Print Operations Running on Automated Job Tickets
“"We used to run production on printed order sheets stuffed into a job bag. Files were attached by email somewhere. Now every ticket has the specs, the artwork, and the QR code right there. We haven't lost a job or printed the wrong version since we went live."”
“"The time tracking alone paid for the whole system. We discovered our large-format jobs were taking 40% longer than we quoted. We repriced that work and recovered margin we didn't know we were losing."”
