Your dashboard is used to manage all the proofs you have been asked to review, and  proofs that you have created and sent to others.

Let’s break down the dashboard

On the left-hand side of the dashboard you will find a set of folders that group and organize your proofs: inbox, sent, outbox, approved and everything.

Let’s explain this further.

Inbox

All that you need to take action on right now. Aim for inbox empty and you’re all up to date!

  • For reviewers: Proofs that are in proofing that you need to leave your decision on.

  • For proof owners: Proofs that have been returned with a to-do list, or are awaiting a new version.

Outbox

All processing proofs and proofs needing a little more set-up will be seen here until they are sent out to your reviewers.

  • For proof owners: Proofs that are processing, have a file error, or are awaiting setup (need a workflow for example).

Sent

All proofs you’ve sent out to reviewers and currently waiting for approval on. This is your work-in-progress list.

  • For proof owners: Proofs that are in proofing.

Approved

As soon as a proof is given final approval, it is filed away into this folder for quick access.

  • Reviewers and proof owners: Proofs that are approved.

Everything

This is where all proofs you’ve ever been involved in are found.

At the top of your dashboard you’ll find a search and filters (for example to filter by proof status, create date, due date etc – and sort order too), so you can drill down to exactly what you’re looking for.

Tip

Type / anywhere in PageProof to access the global search.
