Considerations
No change to RFI creation process.
No new custom notifications for External RFIs.
For an RFI to sync to a receiving project, the connected user must meet both of the following requirements:
Permissions: Must be the RFI Creator, Manager, Assignee, or on the Distribution List.
Validation: Must be a validated connection via Connected Vendor.
If both the sending and receiving projects belong to the same company account, private RFIs sync by default and do not require the specific permission or connection checks listed above.
After the sync is complete, a user's ability to view or manage the RFI in the receiving project is governed by their local RFI tool permissions.
Project connections can only be initiated by the receiving project.
Connections can only be made with ‘active’ projects. Inactive projects are not supported.
GovCloud accounts will not be able to participate in a project connection.
If projects are disconnected, they cannot be reconnected.
If projects are disconnected, the receiving project can not connect to a new sending project.
Not currently supported:
You can view linked External RFIs on mobile, but the full list of External RFIs is only available on the web platform. Link Internal and External RFIs on a Downstream Project.
