Frequently asked questions
Where should I begin when a completed file will not open?
Check the original asset, file type, download and playback or editing application. Keep the original available while testing a separate copy.
Should I create another task when the provider result is uncertain?
No automatic repeat is appropriate. Inspect the saved task and its provider status first; an uncertain request may already have been accepted.
Does a handoff worksheet connect to my store or update my account?
The public review worksheets are manual records. They do not establish a store connection, run a model or change account data.
