# Enable Multi-Format Submissions & Distributions

Learn how to configure your Vault to enable multi-format Submissions and Distributions.

## About the Feature

With the 22R2 (August 12, 2022) release, Vault Safety supports the automated generation of multiple document formats within a single transmission record. For example, a CIOMS I and MedWatch 3500A form can be generated within the same Distribution record to transmit to a partner or ethics committee.

See <a href="/en/lr/01202/#create">Manage Transmission Profiles</a> for more information on setting up a Transmission Profile.

<a href="/en/lr/1022564/">Create an ICSR _Transmission_</a> provides information on how to manually specify multiple formats per Transmission.

## Update the Transmission Profile Layouts

In the Admin area, go to **Configuration > Objects > Transmission Profile > Layouts** and add the **Additional Outbound Format(s)** (`additional_outbound_formats__v`) field to the Email Transmission Profile and the Manual Transmission Profile.

We recommend placing the field under **Outbound Format** in the Outbound Settings section.

## Update the Submission and Distribution Layouts

1. In the Admin area, go to **Configuration > Objects > Transmission > Layouts** and select the **Submission Detail Page Layout**.
2. Add the **Additional Transmission Document Type(s)** (`additional_transmission_documents__v`) field to the layout.
3. Below the **Validation Results (Failures & Warnings)** section, insert a **Related Documents** section with the following settings:
    * **Referencing Document Field**: Outbound Transmissions
    * **Section Label**: Transmission Documents
4. Repeat the above steps for the **Distribution Detail Page Layout**.
