Databar Type Text databar
Transmission Receipt
Upon the successful transmission to our state or federal partner, this field will populate. Once this is populated it prevents retransmission. This can be removed by a user with supervisor rights to retransmit but once a form has been transmitted it will most likely result in a failed transmission due to duplicate form.
If retransmission is needed, click the Remove State Transmission Receipt in the Data Transfer Tab. NOTE: this is not common practice.
