Overview of the Deliverables Process

The Project Deliverables page (below) is broken up into three sub-sections, with users navigating from one section tab to the next:

1. Documents
2. Attachments
3. Export

The Documents Tab

The Documents tab displays a list of plan review documents for the project.

For each document, the filename, most recent version date, most recent submittal number and the current assignment status, by group, is shown.

PRINTER RENDER SETTINGS

Prior to assembling the ZIP file of plan review documents, each of the selected documents will be print rendered.

The print render process embeds sketches, stamps and comments with an 'open' disposition, for each Group, onto a copy of the original PDF. This new document becomes part of the deliverable package.

In the example below, open comments, stamps and sketches for the Building and Fire groups will be included in the deliverable package.
