Configure Reference Rules

Reference rules allow you to configure whether Portal will allow documents to be submitted, accepted, sent, or released with missing references or referenced documents. These settings can be configured per document type, and are split between Contractor actions and Document Controller actions.

To perform the tasks described on this page, you must be assigned to the Tenant Administrator role.
