  1. 1

    Choose the channel

    Delivery plan

    Select one output channel from the decision table.

    Expected result: The channel matches the audience and access requirement.

    If this does not happen: Use Deal Room rather than a public listing for protected diligence files.

  2. 2

    Open the owning workflow

    Review & Customize or Property Hub

    Open the selected PDF, Listing Hub, Deal Room, Share, or Email Blast workflow.

    Expected result: The relevant controls appear.

    If this does not happen: Return to Property Hub when the next destination is unclear.

  3. 3

    Start the selected output

    Property Hub or Review & Customize

    Select Download PDF, Listed, Create Deal Room, Share, or Email Blasts for the channel you chose.

    Expected result: CREBuilder opens or begins that specific output workflow.

  4. 4

    Wait for completion

    Selected workflow

    Wait for the confirmed completion state.

Verify before you finish

  • The output came from the latest saved document
  • The channel matches the audience
  • Public and confidential material are separated
  • External access was tested
  • The final state is confirmed before any retry

Troubleshooting and next steps

The expected output action is unavailable.

Likely cause: The role, plan, document state, or package may not support it.

  1. Read the access or eligibility message.
  2. Ask the owner or administrator to verify permission.
The audience sees stale content.

Likely cause: A prior PDF or publication may predate the latest source edit.

  1. Confirm the source save.
  2. Generate or publish a new output.
  3. Retest the exact distributed artifact.

Final verification

  • Review & Customize or Property Hub: The relevant controls appear.
  • Property Hub or Review & Customize: CREBuilder opens or begins that specific output workflow.
  • Selected workflow: The PDF, listing, room, collaboration, or campaign state is available for review.
  • Downloaded file or external browser: Content and access match the delivery plan.
  • No blocking warning, failed status, or unresolved validation message remains in the completed workflow.
