Matrix Transmittal Issue (individual files not containers/DVC etc)

I dont understand why the scheduled issue of items can only apply to a DVC/SVC or a container but not to a series of individual items. I understand the benefits of a DVC, but if it is only 1 single document that needs to go to a company, then i believe the user should have this option as you do with the containers.

    That's crazy - I didn't know that was the case - how would anybody? Yet another bug that they will no doubt say is "as designed" but they'll give no reason as to why anybody would want to design it that way. I put some individual documents into a Matrix Transmittal thinking it would automatically re-issue them when revised. If it doesn't do that, what's the point? As said below I would use a Notification Transmittal for that.

    Hi Andrew,

    Yes we know about that option but if you select individual items the matrix transmittal works as a Notification Transmittal.

    Kind Regards,

    Hi all,

    When composing a Matrix Transmittal, on the second screen where you have the ability to 'Add/Remove Containers' there is also a link to 'Add/Remove Attachment(s)' which will allow you to distribute single select items as part of a schedule.

    Kind regards,

    Andrew
