Production Notes
The time taken to coordinate and communicate about a task is sometimes disproportionately more than the time taken to complete the task itself. Even during the production of a journal article or a book, there may be several administrative and coordination tasks that arise that must be handled alongside the actual article itself. Most of this communication is done via emails and may involve a lot of back and forth. Trying to collate all this information in a sequential, chronological, easy to access order is a mammoth task in itself.
Realizing the need to have a better solution to track such overhead and administrative tasks, we introduced the Production Notes functionality within Kriya, where all the communication about that content is stored and can be retrieved at any point. This functionality enables the user to -
-
Add notes directly on the Job Card. You can use this to leave instructions about the content to others. In case there are unanswered notes, it is highlighted to the user.
-
See what emails have been sent by Kriya and to whom.
-
See the entire workflow history including who signed off the content, when and who it was signed off to.
The Production Notes feature has helped the publishing and production teams to sync well. It also serves as a record of the activity history.
The Production Notes can be easily accessed through the icon on the Job Card interface as shown below. Screenshots have been included here for easy reference.
Access through Job Card interface.
