This activity is used to create a document transmittal. A document transmittal is a means by which the flow of documents out of the office (to the client, consultants and other involved parties), is controlled and documented. One or several documents can be connected to a transmittal, and distributed to one or more recipients.
If you are connecting projects to the document transmittals and require each project to have a unique set of of transmittal IDs, you must create a transmittal counter in the Document Transmittal Counters window before performing this activity.
As a result of this activity, a document transmittal is created and it can be connected to documents.
Note: A document transmittal can also be created, connected to documents and sent using the steps in the Transmittal Assistant which can be accessed through the navigator, through the Transmittal window, the Document Revision window and the Document Revisions window.
