Create a Delivery

Create a Delivery

To send a file, you create a delivery specifying the file to send, which vehicles to send it to, and other information. After you create the delivery, you send it.

• If you want to assign a delivery to one or more groups of vehicles, those groups must already exist. For instructions on creating a group, see Create a Group.
• To save a new delivery you must assign at least one recipient, which can be either a vehicle or a group.

1. If necessary, click the Deliveries tab to display the Deliveries page.
2. Click Add Delivery.
3. On the Add Delivery popup, fill out the Subject and Description fields with text that will help you identify this delivery later.
4. Specify the file to send.
   • If you have already uploaded the file to Media Manager, select it from the drop down list.
   • To send a file you haven't uploaded yet, click the File Name: Add button. Browse to and select the file you want to send.
