Document Transmittals

Document Transmittals

The current transmittal's function and Excel output is unusable due to the lack of customization. A document transmittal needs to be a frozen PDF containing all company, project information and drawing package/ revisions, that can be sent to consultants, builders etc. This is a legal document that will form part of construction tender packages. The ability to add and customize prior to export is not currently available and it's not efficient to update the Excel file after every download prior to issuing documentation. My suggestion would be able to include company information or header on each page and some control to the graphic output so the export could either come through directly as a PDF or could be PDF'd directly from the Excel file download.

I agree wholeheartedly.  The transmittal is the document that authorizes the use of a drawing or other documents.  As stated, this can easily become evidence in litigation regarding claims for change orders relative to the time a contractor, Owner, or EOR receives a documents.
