Artwork and Mock-up Approval for Signage Jobs

Every mock-up version is saved against the job with the client’s comments. The version marked approved is the one the workshop sees on the job card, and earlier versions stay in the history.

Versions and changes

Mock-up versions

Each mock-up is stored as a numbered version with the date it was sent and the channel it went through.

Client comments

A change such as a different logo colour or a shorter line of text is entered against the version it refers to.

Approval

The estimator or the owner marks one version approved and attaches the client’s reply, such as a WhatsApp message or a signed print.

Brand files

Logo files and colour codes for a chain client are kept once and reused on its later boards.

Why approval sits before cutting

Acrylic and ACP cannot be uncut. A wrong spelling or colour fixed on screen costs little, but the same fix on a finished board means a remake. The job card shows only the approved version.

Who works with it

  • Designers upload mock-ups and revise them after comments
  • Estimators send versions to the client and record the replies
  • The workshop opens the approved file from the job card
  • Owners see which jobs are waiting on a client’s approval

What approval does not cover

The system keeps the record of what was approved. It does not design the artwork or check brand rights. Who may approve for a client company, such as a store manager or head office, is confirmed with the client.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a reply on WhatsApp count as approval?

Yes, if you accept it. The message is attached to the version, and what your business treats as valid approval is your own decision.

What if the client changes their mind after cutting begins?

The change is recorded as a new version and the job card is flagged. Whether the extra work is charged is decided with the client and noted on the invoice.

Are the design files stored in the system?

Yes, as attachments on each version. The size of files and how long they are kept are reviewed during set-up.
