Distribution manager is a used to review documents that are either waiting to be distributed (Distribution Pending Status) or documents that have been delivered. This is a useful screen to check status of documents on “Distribution Pending” status to review errors.
The grid will show a record for each document and distribution (one document could have many distributions). When document are in an error status, they can be sent back to waiting to retry the distribution. If the document continues to receive distribution errors, the error must be reviewed and corrected. This usually points to a problem with the device being distributed to.
