Submit Items to a Manager
Items created by a contractor must be submitted to a manager. The manager can either group items into packages for review or can submit the items to reviewers.
If a manager is submitting an item on behalf of a responsible contractor, the manager must submit the item to another manager. Submitting to a manager changes the status to Required, which is necessary to add items to a package.
Note: Attached documents can't be separated from an item, and items can't be part of multiple packages.
Click Submit to Manager in the Action banner to send an item to a manager.
Import Multiple Items
Managers can do a batch import by using an Excel spreadsheet. In the Project Management module:
- Select Submittals.
- Click Import.
- Download the sample Excel file.
- Add submittals into the spreadsheet starting on row 4.
- The Spec section number needs to match an existing spec section (it is case sensitive). If the spec section doesn't match, a new spec section is created.
- The Submittal Type column is a drop-down menu.
- Click Browse.
- Navigate to the file on your local computer.
- Click Open.
- Click Import.
