In one sentence: enter the details, check the flipbook proof with the family, then approve once.
The system keeps a clear record of who approved which version.
1. Open the app
- Go to the Memorial Publishing login page.
- Sign in with the username and password supplied by Le Bureau.
- You will see your Funeral Director Dashboard.
Need help signing in? Contact Le Bureau — they create and manage FD accounts.
2. Start or open a memorial
- + New Memorial — start a new Order of Service.
- Or open an existing order from the list, then use Details, Design or Review.
3. Your two options
Quick Build
You enter the details and use Design to layout fonts, positions and images.
InHouse Design
You enter the details and send them to Le Bureau. They design the artwork and return a proof for you to approve.
4. Enter the details (Memorial Studio)
1 Enter the deceased name and dates of birth / death (use the date pickers).
2 Add service wording, cover text and any inside-page copy from the family.
3 Upload photos if the family has supplied them. Photos are optional.
Dates: enter with the picker. On the finished Order of Service they print in long form, e.g. 18th June 1940 to 29th July 2026.
5. Design (Quick Build only)
- Open Design.
- Click text on the page to select it.
- Change font, size, bold, italic, alignment and position.
- Save when you are happy.
Enter the words in Studio. Do the visual formatting in Design — that keeps data entry fast.
6. Proof with the family
1 Go to Proof & Approval.
2 Open Family Flipbook (Proof) — it turns like a book and is marked PROOF.
3 Optional: Email Proof to Family to send them a private link.
4 If changes are needed, revise / request changes and check the new proof.
7. Approve for production
When the proof is correct:
- Click Approve Latest Version for Production.
- Confirm the prompt — this signs off that revision (including name and dates).
No family photos? You do not need an extra photo step. The system marks photo clearance as Not needed.
If you change the memorial after approving, approve the new revision again before print. The system will warn if approval is out of date.
8. Order Record (your safety net)
On Proof & Approval, open Order Record to see:
- Timeline of actions
- Who approved which revision
- Compliance status (kept out of data entry so Studio stays fast)
- Export audit report for your file
