Adding documents to the transmittal

Documents that have to be issued for different purposes can be added to a transmittal. You can either add a new document or add a document in your workspace which is in the transmittal stage. 

NOTE: New documents can be added to a General transmittal and Release transmittals. Documents from workspace can be added only to Release and Final Release transmittals.

Uploading documents

While creating a transmittal large files can be uploaded and registered in WRENCH. The facility to upload files from transmittal would allow the document controllers to work only with the transmittal and file upload window. 

To upload files

When releasing the transmittal, if there are documents pending for registration the following warning message is displayed.

If this message is displayed, user can remove the files pending for registration by clicking the link “here” in the message “There are files pending for registration. Click here to register”, navigate to the file uploader menu, select the files and click ‘Remove’. Once all the files linked to the transmittal are removed, the message will not be displayed and the transmittal can be released with the remaining documents.

Updating receive back dates

Receive back dates can be updated for the documents that are sent with the transmittal. In the case of general transmittal Expected Receipt Date has to be updated and in the case of release transmittal Expected Receive Back Date can be updated from the transmittal grid.
