Adding a Job

Ron wants to create the next image flyer for his company. To do this, he uses a job type that provides him with the necessary steps and tasks. A job type is a template provided by the company that describes the requirements and goals of a particular project.

Ron customizes the details of the new job, such as the name, budget, schedule, assignees, and target audience for the flyer. Then he sends the job to the first assignee, who handles the design. He can check the progress of the job at any time in the job overview.
