Production control note
What is a seating revision workflow?
A seating revision workflow preserves the version already reviewed, records current guest and table changes in one model, calculates affected guest-facing and staff outputs, performs a fresh preflight, and issues a traceable replacement packet.
Start after placement decisions
This workflow is useful once a host or planner already knows who should attend and where they should sit. It does not automate those human choices. Preserve the owner’s authoritative source outside the browser project and label every assumption that remains unverified.
Compare structured records
Names, attendance, table IDs, seat labels, guest notes, staff fields, and print settings have different downstream effects and should not collapse into one changed flag. Review the result as production evidence, not as a recommendation or professional approval; the responsible people remain accountable for the decision.
Close with another review
A selective reprint saves effort only when someone confirms that every stale artifact is removed and every replacement is physically usable. Carry this limitation into the proof and handoff so a fresh recipient knows what changed, what was checked, and what still requires human confirmation.
