    Form for tracking item updates

    Hi all,

    At work, I have to keep track of visual effect shots (for film/tv). The shots have unique names, eg NAM_001_010, NAM_001_020,
    where the first 3 digits are scene number and the second 3 numbers are the shots in the scene that require effect work.

    As the shots get worked on, I am sent multiple versions of the same shot.
    For example, on June 1, I receive NAM_001_010_v01, on June 6, I might receive NAM_001_010_v05. The v01, v05 indicates the version of the effect.
    Other shot specific information needed is the time code in and out points (HH:MM:SS:FF) and which reel of the film the shot is in.

    I am looking to create a form that I can use to enter all the shot names and then when I receive a shot, call up the effect shot and enter the date and version number received.

    I also want to be able to indicate the name of the company that delivered the shot and, when a shot has been approved, have some way of indicating the version that was approved - which isn't always the last one sent.

    I have searched through some excel templates and haven't quite found anything that I could adapt for my specific use and not being a coding expert, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction
    before I start something I know will lead to long, sleepless nights.

    Thanks for your time and advice.

    Re: Form for tracking item updates

    Can you create a template yourself with a column for each piece you need?

    I am not really sure what you need help with specifically, so where are you stuck?
    You can make a template and get as far as you can THEN ask for more specific questions on here and we can easily help, but your request is somewhat ambiguous and as much as I would like to help, I am not sure how.


    Do you have sample data and a sample layout of what you want?
