Mail Type

 

The Mail Type maintenance document is used to establish and maintain numeric codes and textual description values which are stored in database tables.  This data serves as reference information that is made available for display and selection in various areas of the system, including other e-docs.  Mail types indicate how the final proposal is submitted.  For instance, a proposal may be submitted by Regular mail, via Electronic Submission, or by a Delivery Service.  Mail Types are used on the Proposal page of the Proposal Development e-doc.
