Jobs

Plint revolves around "things that need to be done". A thing that needs to be done is called a job in Plint. Jobs can be completed in different ways (from just clicking "Done" to changing status after using the online editor to translate a feature film), but they all have the following in common:

Jobs are always linked to projects.
They need to be confirmed by the assignee in order for work to begin
- (But can be set to Confirmed from the start, for example with in-house tasks)
They can have different statuses
- In process means that the job still needs to be done
- When jobs are completed using the online tools, they are automatically set to Done during the Status change
- Awaiting corrections means that a job has been set to Done and then reopened for additional work
- Preliminary is good for assigning a job without actually showing it to the assignee yet
- Cancelled means, well, cancelled
They can have parent jobs
- until the Parent job is Done, the child job is not open for work
