Send a package

Topics

The New screen lets you create a package consisting of a note, attached files, or both. You can address it to local contacts, users in your MOVEit address book, and email addresses that you enter manually.

You can add files or images from this device. You can also take a photo while composing a package.

Note: Subject is always required in the mobile app. Files and Note are individually required or optional depending on your organization.

Note: See also Recall package, view details.

Note: Mobile does not provide the function where you enter the password to be used by unregistered recipients; mobile will always automatically generate passwords. Use the Send Receipt button in the sent package to see the automatically generated passwords.

Specify recipients

You can address a package to users in your MOVEit address book and to contacts locally stored on your device. You can also manually enter email addresses.

Selecting contacts from MOVEit or from device

In the New screen, tapping and Contacts from MOVEit opens the Addresses screen. (Contacts from device opens the Contacts screen.) Checkboxes are to the left of names.

Note: The Contacts from device screen lists only those contacts that have an email address.

Attach files and photos

You can select files and images to attach – or take pictures – in the New screen.

Attaching files from MOVEit

This enables you to add a file from a MOVEit folder. In the New screen, tapping and Attach file from MOVEit opens the Attach Files screen. The current folder pathname is displayed, along with the folder's contents and a Parent Folder item.

Note: Attach file from MOVEit is only available if you also have file transfer capability.

Attaching files from device

In the New screen, tapping and Attach file from device opens the Choose file screen, which displays local folders. The current folder pathname is displayed.

Note: Attach file from device is only available on Android devices.

Attaching an existing photo

In the New screen, tapping and Attach existing photo opens this device's photos app, such as "Camera Roll", "Gallery", or equivalent.

Taking a new picture to attach

In the New screen, tapping and Take a picture opens this device's Camera app (still photos only).

Save draft

You can save a package in the Drafts mailbox on the MOVEit server. You can access the draft later to complete and send.

Note: You cannot save as a template from mobile. However, you can go to Templates and access a template to complete and send.

The draft will include the subject (required) and any recipients, note, and attached files.

When you are ready to finish and send the package, you can go to Mailboxes to access the draft.

Note: When you compose a package, the note portion will be saved automatically on the server at 5 minute intervals to help prevent loss of work. But any attached files will not be included in the automatically saved drafts.
