Marketing Asset And Approval Register
Track creative deliverables through production and sign-off with this editable marketing asset and approval register. Marketing managers and organisers maintain the Asset Register, Review Log, Rights Register, Production Schedule and Summary so versions, owners and review status stay visible. The Rights Register supports rights tracking fields in the workbook; it does not provide legal clearance, compliance certification or automatic attribution.
