For IMP users who need to create “work orders” for photo and production tasks, you must have a Content Item in the system in order for the job to be processed. Users cannot get tasks to do the photo research unless there is a record to which to attach those tasks.


  1. Create a Content Item. You can either add an item from the Content Items menu:

    or from the Content Versions menu:


  2. Fill out all the required fields (indicated by a red asterisk) as prompted:

    Your Content Item is now saved. From the content summary screen, you can now add tasks.


  3. Add Image Request Tasks. Scroll down a bit until you see the "Tasks" Subsection of the Content Item.

    Find your template (most business units have their own image request templates):


    A tab appears identifying the Platform (Web) and Department (AARP.org).
    Tasks from the selected template are added to this tab. Task start and due dates are based on values set in the template and calculated so that each person involved in the process has time to complete the task assigned in time to meet the deadline.




  4. You can adjust the Due Date or change a task assignee by using the fields beneath the task tab.
