Customer communications
Development-order history is initialised securely from Shopify in small batches, then increases when a scan delivery is approved. Marketing status and the latest completed order are context only: staff may create a review-request draft whenever it is appropriate.
Picture This Lab
Recent requests for scans from completed orders. The helper works through these only when it has no active delivery work.
Customers can access all their eligible scan orders after email sign-in.
Picture This editorial
Confirm that the writer is a Picture This customer, then review and explicitly approve responses before publication.
Publish responses rather than questions. There is no reply facility and photographers and reviewers are not expected to respond.

Shopify Flow
Every confirmation lists the order details and price paid. One- and two-hour orders stop there; the four completion messages below are used only for Same Day, Next Working Day, 3 Working Days and No Rush orders. Due-date rules stay fixed in Staff Desk code.
Picture This Gallery
Maintain Cream, White and Black as staff-controlled presets. Saving changes updates only the selected draft. The public Gallery changes only when staff explicitly publish a theme.
