When to use it

Use it before requesting a quote or asking a supplier to release samples. It gives every party one current record of what is known and what is still open.

How to fill it

1. Replace every bracketed field and repeat the product and shot-list rows as needed.
2. Name the brief owner, current version, approval contacts and target image-use date.
3. Keep undecided items visible so alternatives can be quoted or agreed separately.

When to use it

Use it while samples are still with the factory or supplier. One consistent row helps the buyer, dispatch contact and studio identify the same physical item.

How to fill it

1. Delete the illustrative example and create one row for every distinct SKU and color or specification that must be tracked.
2. Use the supplier's physical label reference as well as the buyer-facing SKU.
3. Update receiving and return fields only after those arrangements have been agreed.

When to use it

Use it after your requirements are stable enough for studios to respond to the same questions. Compare the included work and open assumptions before comparing totals.

How to fill it

1. Write the buyer requirement first; do not start with the studio price.
2. Copy each studio response into its own column without combining different scopes.
3. Move exclusions, unclear quantities and unconfirmed responsibilities into open questions.

When to use it

Use it when one launch needs several channels or production methods. Give every requested asset one placement, purpose, source method and approval status instead of treating a long image count as the scope.

How to fill it

1. Replace the clearly marked example row and add one row for each SKU, placement and asset task.
2. Name the production method only after product-accuracy requirements and available source material are understood.
3. Keep the product-fact source, visual-review owner and customer-facing release owner/status separate.
