Print Shop
v1.0.0

Overview
Two surfaces on one set of data, for one print works. A customer builds the job — product, material, size, sides, finish, quantity, packaging, delivery — and the quote and the ready-by date move with every choice; what the works cannot do is switched off and says why, because a dead control with no reason behind it is just a dead end. Artwork is measured as it arrives: bleed, resolution at the finished size, dimensions and page count each come back with the number behind the verdict, so a refusal can be argued with. Behind the counter the run is imposed onto press sheets, and the ticket records how many fit and which way round they turned — 500 business cards land 21 up on SRA3, so 24 sheets. Nothing leaves prepress until the proof is approved, and the refusal names what is missing. Spoilage on the floor adds sheets and moves the stock line — the one number the customer never sees. The manifest scaffolds nine tables into your connected database and generates the back office around them; the rate card, the materials and the quantity breaks are rows in there, so a works changes what it charges without touching code.
