Remember, you can set up statuses and workflows in the software that suit your studio – there’s no single right way to do it. Work with Spectra/myStratus to find the best way to make the Digital Workflow features function for your studio. Here are some different ways to set up the Digital Workflow.

• Archive Images after Capture - If you archive your images immediately after capturing your hi-res images, enter a session status of "Archive Images Pending" after "Session Previews Pending" and associate it with the Archive Images stage of the Digital Workflow.

• Pre-Sales Retouch - If your studio retouches before presenting the images to the client, set up a session status of "Pre-Sales Retouch Pending" after "Create Previews Pending" and associate it with the Retouch Images stage of the Digital Workflow.

• No Retouch - If your studio doesn't retouch in-house, you can remove the production status of "Retouching." However, you may still want to include a step where you make production notes about any retouch the lab needs to do.

• Internal Printing - If your studio prints images internally, we recommend that you set up a new production status called "Image Printing Pending."

• No Web Upload - If you don't upload images to a website, you will not need to use this Digital Workflow stage. You can remove the "Upload to Web" session status and simply skip this stage.

• No Production Orders - If you do not want to use the software's Production Order features, refer to Setting up Digital Workflow to see how to set up your Digital Workflow without production orders.
