View and add issues

Plan your issues over time, assign dead lines and sales targets.

A user with Production rights can access the print magazines in the navigation column under Channels >>> Print.

Search for and select the magazine channel you want to work with.

In tab named Issues you can find any planned issues for your selected magazine.

If you want to display your issues the way they are planned over time, sort the information by Production date by clicking the little arrow (green box).

It is of essence to add issues fairly far out into the future

The reason for this is that in order to sell an ad in the 2019 October issue (for example), that issue need to exist in RunMags. Likewise, in order to sell a one year, 12 issues subscription, each and every one of those future issues need to exist before you create the subscription sales order. If they don't exist, RunMags will not calculate the sales order correctly and your distribution will be off.
