BASICS 

The Submittal Package contains Submittal Items.  It is the items within each package that contain the item status.  This will allow for each item to maintain its own status, the package will not maintain a status. 

Organizing your Submittals 

For most projects it will be most efficient to Create the Submittal Packages in the primary Submittal Module without a sub-folder structure. For more complex projects advanced options using sub-folders is available.  

Submittal Project Defaults

To better understand how you can define your defaults please see 1.5 Project Defaults
