Document Types like Incoming Email require a Distribution Rule so that someone is responsible for their distribution.

Note

The TX form (transmittal form in publication space) is a system created form when documents are uploaded to the publication space.   Although this form can be chosen for a distribution list or rule it is not executed.  A DTX (distribution transmittal) will always be created.

Scope

Select when this rule or list is to be applied.  The options are:

  • Creation
  • Replies
  • Creation And Replies
  • Manual
Note

1. The pre-addressing options apply to Document creation only, regardless of whether you select "Document Creation and Replies".  This means when someone replies to the document, they may change the addressing options (except if the addressee is "Forced").  

2. Limiting the available names by ticking the "Exclude" checkbox applies to both Document creation and Document replies. This means when someone replies to the document, they will still not see excluded names in the Address Book.


ActionEnter names of people (see below).
InfoEnter names of people (see below).
ExcludeTick the checkbox "Exclude" to ensure that on Creation and Replies the user is not available in the address book. 

...

  •  Enumerate - the item is expanded from a single "Group" entry into a list of the individual users in that group. This parameter is ignored if the code is 'PRIVATE' or an individual user. 
  •  Preferred - the item is listed in a "preferred" section at the top of the address-book.
  •  Selected - addressees are pre-selected.
  •  Forced - addressees are pre-selected and may not be removed.
  •  Silent - addressees will not get an item on their ToDo notifications list. This might be used in CCs to ensure someone has access to documents, but they do not want a ToDo Notification every time those documents are created or edited.
