In Safety’s out-of-box configuration, all Transmission records (Submissions and Distributions) linked to a Case must be in the Completed state before you can close the associated Case. If a Submission or Distribution was created in error or must be removed for another reason, you can withdraw the record, which will enable Distribution Manager users to close the Case.
Withdraw a Transmission
To withdraw a Transmission record, an administrator must first add the user action. Once the user action is configured, you can change a Transmission record’s state by selecting Withdraw Record from the Workflow State Change Menu (
) on the Action Bar.
