To ensure Creatives are paid for their work, follow these steps:

  1. Access the Payment Sheet:

  2. Add Creatives to the Payment Sheet:

    • Each client has a dedicated block on the sheet. Add one row for each Creative by pulling up a template row (located under the blue-marked row) into the client’s section.

    • Fill in columns B to G (see explanation below:

      • Start Date (Column B): The first day the Creative started working.

      • Completion Date (Column C): The last day the Creative worked.

  3. Specify Creative Level and Status:

    • Use the community section of your Director’s portal to confirm the Creative's level and status:

      • Levels (Hard Skills): Aspiring, Emerging, Senior, Pro

      • Statuses (Soft Skills): Temp, Verified, Super

    • The level should match the job post, while the status remains independent (e.g., a Super Pro Creative working on a Senior job post is paid as Super Senior).

  4. Important Notes:

    • Always use a template row instead of copying another row to maintain correct data and formulas.

    • When replacing a Creative, ensure no date overlap: the new Creative’s start date must be at least one day after the previous Creative’s completion date.

  5. Explanation of Payment Sheet Columns:

    • Column A: Client’s plan status (auto-filled).

    • Column B: The first day the Creative started working

    • Column C: The last day the Creative worked

    • Column D: Client name and plan (select from dropdown).

    • Column E: Creative’s name (select from dropdown).

    • Column F: Creative level and status (select from dropdown).

    • Column G: Activity type—choose Creative on Plan - Regular or Creative on Plan - Additional.
