Hi,

Can anybody share some user guide or brief overview on transmittal management?
 
Do you have access to any of its documentation.What it is for is basically what its says Transmittals. Usually big billion dollar capital projects are done not any one entity they work thru a consortium of contractors,clearing houses,certifiers etc so in the absence of transmittals the engineering department has a bunch of document administrators who painfully match up IN/OUT documentation,drawings etc their revisons,workflows.The module form OT is to streamline the whole operation and is usually setup as not a free flow project but something like a playbook,similar to contracts.Think of it as re-usable templates which are basically created by trained livelink end users who just follow documentation and a little bit of common sense.

The main things in its working is Livelink,Transmittals,ADN,Adlib,Forms,property writer for a word macro

You really should watch a webinar or web presentation.In its heart it is all still livelink objects that may resemble Tasks and tasklists with a lot of bells and whistles thrown in.It is in my opinion a very well thought product offering to a very complex problem.

Well, if I called the wrong number, why did you answer the phone?

even a webinar

I know a little bit of this because I implemented transmittals in two places so basically it is not very rocket science

I have successfully created Transmittal list and had selected the Delivery option to Workflow. I have also configured the transmittal workflow. When we sent the Transmittal package associated workflow will be initiated. When the user click on wf assignment, task will open and Packages will be displayed. When we click on Transmittal package all the data related to this will be displayed. It will display as Content Server classic style.
Our requirement want to change the user interface, when user click on wf task under assignment directly html file should be open embedded Transmittal inside it.

Out main focus is to change the User Interface of transmittal. How we can achieve this??? Can anybody please guide me.


Thanks & Regards,
Dhaval
 
if you have not done any serious oscript or weblingo customization it will be rather difficult.Further the JPG file you have posted is not reachable consider putting that somewhere that people can see.If you look in greg's website there is a tutorial to Customizations_RT which allows you to swap weblingo files this is part of the UI that people see.
If you know the dataid there are only a finite set of things with which you can do so you may be able to do cheap customizations using anchor href's as well.
If I was asked to doit I would probably try to understand what the user likes and don't like and try to front end it better
