Now that the photos have been taken, its time to Create a New Job.
- Click ‘File’.
- Click ‘New Job’.
- Type in your Job Name.
- Using the drop down menu, pick your Film Format (Digital, 70mm, etc.).
- Using the drop down menu, pick your Program (1, 2, 3, etc.).
- Highlight your Job Type (Underclass, Event, Sports).
- If you are using a database to enter student information, highlight the Database Name.
- If you are not using a database and manually entering the student information, check Data entered Manually.
- Click ‘Continue’.
- In the section marked ‘Active Fields’, select the fields to be visible on the form. (If you are entering data from a database, the active fields will already be checked based on the fields that were mapped during the importing of the database.)
- If you are entering data manually use the ‘Retain' fields (located next to 'Active' field)
so as not to retype common information for each student (i.e. Teacher Name, Grade,
Home Room, etc.).
- Optional: If you are ordering products that require the school name or year printed on them enter that information on the right side of this window (i.e Group Photos with Borders).
- Click ‘OK’.
- If your format is digital, the system will now give you the opportunity to import you images, click 'Yes' or ‘No’.

Vital Tip: When creating a new job we highly recommend the following naming structure: type in the name of the school followed by the number 1. For example, Central High 1. If you return a second day name the job Central High 2. When you go back for the final time name the job Central High 99. This way all jobs for Central High will be listed together. The 99 indicates you will not be returning to Central High and we can merge all jobs for the production of the Yearbook CD. Consistency in naming jobs is the key to ensuring fewer errors during underclass season. |
