What it’s for
Travel with the job through the shop so every station sees the same specification, and stage hand-offs are dated instead of remembered.
Who it’s for: Production leads and operators; anyone who asks "what's the spec on this one?".
What’s included
- Job header: reference, priority, deadline, customer and contact
- Product block with a blank size/quantity grid
- Artwork and approval references, decoration method, and a placements table (position, dimensions, colours)
- Production instructions, materials and consumables notes, machine and operator assignment
- Seven dated workflow stages from artwork approved to dispatched, QC result, packing and dispatch details, and internal notes

How to use it
- Raise the sheet at order confirmation, from the order record — not from memory at the press.
- Pin the artwork version and approval date before the sheet reaches the floor; a job sheet without a version number is a reprint waiting to happen.
- Date each workflow stage as it happens so "where is it?" has a written answer.
- Close the sheet with QC result and dispatch details, and file it with the order.
Limitations
- A paper traveller shows the state at last update — it can't tell the customer anything or warn about deadline slips; that's what live tracking software (including damantra) exists for.
- Two pages cover most garment/decoration jobs — print duplex so the traveller stays a single sheet; complex multi-part fabrication jobs may need a supplementary sheet per component.

Template
Artwork approval form
A one-page printable form that captures a customer's sign-off on the exact artwork, placement, size, and colours before production starts — the record that turns "that's not what I asked for" into a documented decision.
Template
Final quality-control inspection form
A one-page Pass/Fail/N-A inspection form for finished custom orders — order match, counts, placement, decoration quality, cure state, finishing, and packaging — with an inspector sign-off and rework notes.
Template
Job-costing worksheet
An editable workbook that costs a job end-to-end — materials, decoration, setup, artwork, labour, packaging, shipping, wastage, overhead and fees — then shows cost per unit, break-even and target prices, profit, margin and markup with every formula visible.
Checklist
New-order intake checklist
Everything to confirm before a custom print or decoration order enters production — spec, artwork, quantities, dates, and payment terms — so problems get caught in a five-minute review instead of on the press.
Prefer the version that fills itself in?
damantra generates job sheets, approvals, and QC records from the order itself — with a portal where customers approve artwork online.
