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/Stratus 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.
