What is the first recipient and how do I set/change it?

First recipient defined:

• The first recipient is the project team member who initially receives any submittals to be reviewed.
• The first recipient can either route submittals to other project team members to get their feedback or enter the final action immediately without consulting other project team members.

  Helpful Hint: Most of the time, the Architect is responsible for reviewing submittals; however, your organization can choose any role to perform this task.

How can I change who the first recipient is in my Submittals?

1. From inside the project where you want to set or change the first recipient for Submittals, click the Admin tab.Helpful Hint: If you don't see the Admin tab, then you do not have access to make this change. Please check with your Administrator to get the changes made that you need.
