The Projects/Job concept.

You may have color Libraries or Pallets with hundreds or thousands of Color References, but most everyday productions are only based on a smaller subset of 2-10 colors. A project is a kind of template for production purposes that defines a short list of colors.  Avery production batch (print run or any other manufacturing process) called Job is made by the rules defined by Project.  Whenever production uses a separate device or is re-printed or re-manufactured, a new Job ID should be assigned to every new attempt. That makes a process easier to track and helps operators to achieve parameters similar to or better than before.  Every case should have a unique Job ID when production is performed in various facilities and/or locations. 

Autorecognition, Autosave

A shorter list of References means a faster and more accurate color sample autorecognition, which made the whole process very fast and easy. The operator may collect data in any sample order. Depending on the "autosave" option status, every measurement might automatically be stored in QC Tracking or with a manual save. During the make-ready state, the operator may double-check if all is correct (manual save mode ), and when set up complete — run the production mode  (autosave). 

Procedure for the Expert

1. The expert has to create a new Project - it starts with a Project name.
2. Add a first color reference - select a Color Library or Pallete and pick a sample - if not exist jet - create it.
3. Be sure to set up Global Tolerance ( same for all color samples) or create individual tolerances in Color Library.

Procedure for the Operator

1. Measure Substrate first - that is critical to calculating Ink GPS ( Perifarb) formula - to do that, Click on the "Substrate" button, next trigger measurement (instrument button or "Measure" button in the CC Capture)
2. Select Projects from Source of Reference, enter a valid Project name or browse the list.
3. Enter "Job ID" that might be Manufacturing Order # in your production workflow.
4. Measure sample — if all is correct sample should be auto-recognized. and measurement ready for manual saves.
