    For example, "Review and approve the attached project invoices. Be sure to update your tasks!".

  6. Depending on the importance of the route, select the Important check box. This functions as a flag for greater visibility to those individuals to whom the document is routed. Otherwise, leave the check box blank.

    Important

    The same reviewer can display more than once in your route. When the route template was created, specific reviewers were identified and route sequences assigned. Those reviewers with their route sequences systematically display. If you manually add the same reviewer with a different route sequence outside the route template, that reviewer displays twice based on the order of their route sequences. Your sequence could resemble the following:

    Important

    For the individuals to whom you are routing to receive a notification (by email or telephone) that a route has occurred, an event must be set up on each individual for every route. Otherwise, an entry shows in that individual's queue.

  13. In the Documents to Route grid, search to locate the documents to be included in the route.

  14. Click the Search search_icon.png icon.

    An Add Documents to Route page displays with the Criteria tab active:

  15. In the Keyword field, enter any appropriate search criteria to help narrow your search.

  16. (Optional) Click the ADVANCED SEARCH dropdown arrow to display additional fields to help narrow down your search.

    1. The Criteria radio button within Search Options is selected by default. You can also select Specific Documents if you would like to narrow your search by document ID.

      Note

      If you select Specific Documents, your Advanced Search options are reduced to the Document IDs field. In this field you can enter specific identification numbers or leave the field blank to include all.

    2. In the Document Type(s) field, use the dropdown to search for document type(s) to add to the current route. If using several index criteria in the search, an AND / OR option is available. AND allows the combination of several index criteria in the search. All index criteria must be met to return a result. OR allows any one of the index criteria to return a result.

    4. In the Indexed fields, click the calendar icons to select the date range.

    5. In the Types section, select either All, Archive or Production. The Production radio button is clicked by default.
