When you book a quote, Táve Studio Manager not only creates the default work and tasks you created for your products, but now we add all the products that were ordered to a new "Deliverables" section on the job editor.

This list helps you keep track of the status of individual products that the client ordered.   We've grouped all those default tasks with the deliverables so you can easily see which tasks are responsible for which deliverables.  On top of that, you can now create new tasks for a deliverable product after they've been sold.

When you're done with a task, you can complete or delete it as usual, and when you've delivered the product you can do the same.   
Deliverable products
We follow the "release early, release often" approach at Táve, so there's more to come!   Additional refinements are in the works, such as setting individual due dates, tagging them with customizable labels, and an updated iPhone Access job viewer.
Did you know that you can have the system automatically add tasks and work to a job when a client accepts a quote?   Use this under-utilized default work system to track more of your work while spending less time setting up the job.

When you edit a product, look for the "Work to create when ordered" module at the bottom left, as seen in this screenshot from the "Sample Album" product included in the sample data when you create your studio:

Work to create when ordered

Use the "Add Work or Task" link to create the items.   However they look when you edit them here, is how they'll look when you sell the products.

When you set a Job Phase for the item, the task won't be due until the job reaches that phase.  As always, once a job is booked (when a client accepts a quote), you can set the phase of the job just by clicking the progress bar at the top of the Job Editor:

Job Phases

Here the user is changing the job phase to Fulfillment, which would cause the four work and task items shown above to become current.
Táve Studio Manager lets you subscribe to your calendar, and in the future receive to-dos and reminders, with your favorite calendaring application.

In this tutorial, we'll see how to publish a calendar and subscribe to it with Apple's iCal, Microsoft's Windows Calendar, and Google's Calendar.
