When a licence ends, and taking your work out

If your licence ends, nothing is locked away and nothing is deleted. Studio stays open to read, and you can take everything out.

While the licence is in its grace

Everybody works as before. A line on Home says when the licence ended and the last day Studio will let you change things, and how to renew. See What a licence covers.

After the grace: read-only

Studio still opens. Jobs open and can be copied out. These are refused, in words that say why:

• a save;
• an order, or a due date;
• handing a job out, or marking it checked;
• putting a job on a press;
• a change to presses, materials, colours or presets;
• an invitation, or a new role.

Removing a person, and Send feedback…, still work. Ending somebody's access is never what a lapse stops, and the note is how a lapsed shop asks to renew. Home says so.

When the licence is renewed, Studio is as it was. Nothing needs to be uploaded or put back.

Taking your work out

A supervisor can take the shop's work out as one file, at any time while the licence runs, is in grace, or has lapsed. Open the Admin console, then Organisation, then Take your shop's work with you, and press the button named Download your shop's work (zip). It holds:

• every job, each as a file Studio can open again;
• orders, customers and jobs also as spreadsheets;
• presses, materials, presets, profiles, favourites and colours, in open formats;
• a README and a list of every file with its checksum.

It is made as it is sent to you and is kept nowhere. It holds every job, order and bulk order in the shop. If something could not be read or left in, the list says so rather than hiding it. A plain shop person cannot take it out, only a supervisor can.
