In general, the production queue only includes models that meet all conditions to start work on our side. For example it won’t show a model until all its assets are received, VRs until visuals are approved, etc.

Just the layouts are an exception, we’re showing the layouts that need to be produced even if the objects haven’t been approved yet.

While production of layouts shouldn’t start until all objects are approved, pushing some clients to approve objects may take ages.

For that reason, the system will show the models that are ready to start with layouts production but it’ll also tag these models so the PMs know this before they take the job.

That way, we can decide whether to start with layouts or not on a per-case basis.
