Running Events

Pre-Event Preparation

  1. Book the event online at www.ordermyphotos.co.uk, and get an event job number (see Booking An Event for a guide to this process). You will need an online account with Parker Franklin - if you do not yet have one please give us a call on 0845 094 9183 and we will happily set one up for you.
  2. If you are using pre-printed order forms, check you have sufficient order forms and print more if needed.
  3. If you have not done so before, run the program and click Settings to set up your program settings. If you have recently "continued" an event that was not located in your normal ProofStation database folder then make sure the database folder is correctly set to your normal ProofStation location. See section Program Settings. These must be set up correctly before running an event.
  4. Create the database for the event. Though this can be done on the day it generally wisest to get it all done beforehand.
  5. Run a grey card test to check for marks on your CCD. See Image Test.
  6. If the job requires names using barcodes (group names or SIMS) ensure you have printed the barcode slips for each subject and a copy of the Special Barcodes page printed to take with you (if lost or forgotten a new one can be printed from Program Settings). See also the Special Barcodes appendix.
