    Freelance Crafters can now send fabricated items via “Send to client for approval…” from computers to complete the “Send your finished work to the client” career task.

    Fixed in Patch 1.91.205/1.64

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

    I am also having this issue.  I clicked me too but wanted to note that this is after the patch that was supposed to fix it.  For me it was Fine Wall Decor,

      @Jan_831 Which issue are you having ? They fixed the issue where you didn't get the gig list when clicking on the button, not this one which is about the freelancer crafter career only and the gigs not completing.

        Hi Crin.  Now I am having the one where I can't send the finished product to the client.  I had this issue previously, then it worked for a while and now it isn't working.  I honestly do not remember when it first stopped working and when it started to work again, but I think it was fixed with a previous patch and now it isn't working.  It stopped working this time with the last patch.

    I've just tried the freelancer crafter career for the first time and I'm having this issue.

    My household is a freelancer household. Both signed up for the rug gig (they are at different fabrication skill levels).

    My more skilled sim submitted her rug to her client and received the response that it was "Just what they were looking for". She was paid $110 but got no gold completion bar for it and the job didn't close.

    My second sim then completed his rug. My first sim was able to offer this to her client again. She was paid again but the same issue with the completion bar so I cancelled her gig in case it was just her glitching.

    My second sim then fabricated a third rug, which he offered to his client who accepted and paid for it but again no gold completion bar and I had to cancel the gig out again to close it. 

    I would assume as soon as the rug is sent to the client it should be marked off as complete so I don't know if this is another issue or an extension of the same issue.

    I'm currently waiting for a suitable levelled fizzing or candle gig to see if it's just the rug gig. 

    I am fully updated to version 1.77.146.1030 (and have repaired my game just in case), all packs installed, no mods or cc, and using a new household started last night. 

    EDIT: I've managed to successfully complete fizzing and candles so decided to try a different gig using the fabricator. 

    I've just completed a lamp job. All 3 lamps submitted to the client but it still shows the submissions as 0/3 so it seems any gig which requires the fabricator isn't registering.

      I can also confirm candles work fine, finally got time to play again last night, I tried again with Tina Tinker, I  tried the rug again and nope, but did 3 rectangular candles to success, got paid and the gig ticked off, and for a lot more money, so I may just leave the rugs if they don't want to complete, I'll try and see if it will let me fabricate other things, but I have a feeling it just doesn't want to work. 

      I'm glad it wasn't just me that was just having an issue with it, I did try it on the task I had up since the last update, and it didn't submit the rug, but did allow the candles to be completed, so maybe they fixed it in the last bug.

      The rug a dub dub came back up and I tried it and yep paid me $110 not the $200 and it didn't complete again, so update didn't fix it ☹️ so that does seem to be the issue, it's not giving me the paper airplane pop up dialogue that completes the task, as that's the one thing that's never popped up before for me.


      Trying to fabricate a children's bed (Back In My Day) to see if that works, yep didn't send, and everything else works, her partner's been able to submit her books for approval too, so definitely an issue with the fabricated goods.

      So Candles and anything not by the fabricator for now, until it gets a fix, if it was the household nothing would complete, so definitely just an issue with the fabricator. I've started juicing instead lol :D

    The only "work around" I have found for this problem when trying to complete the Master Maker aspiration is that it will usually work on the gigs for multiple candles even when it doesn't work with any other gig I tried.

    I am also having the same issue, one of my sim is completing the freelance task , however the second sim in the household would chat with client, fabricate items but when sent to the client it disappears in my inventory but the task would never get completed.

    I need help.

    I have this issue too! It's still there. Such a shame that it's still broken.
