Job Revisions

I have recently taken over traffic/production here and I have a question about how other agencies are handling job revisions. How are revisions being documented and communicated to production personnel? I have been looking at the change order in C & P; it appears to be used for advising clients of changes, but I have been entering job revisions in there and printing them out for our production department. Thanks, Michelle

I use the change order in the same manner. A copy goes to production and a copy goes to the AE.

We put all job revisions into the work order so that we have a full history of the job. The only time I would use a change order is to communicate to the client and our production staff that there is change in direction of the job and that we're all on the same page.

We've been using the "job diary" entry to note job revisions, client approvals, and even for basic conference reports. Each job diary entry can be emailed to those assigned to the job, and the entry remains on the job's record for future reference.
