Allow Subcontractors to create Submittals similar to RFIs/Issues

Often our subcontractors have a different idea of how to bundle submittal information than how we envision - or in the order we have the submittal register built so it makes a mess of the submittal register. It would be ideal if we could create one submittal for the subcontractor to start the timer on the process but then let them submit as they gather information. As it stands we are still using email to gather submittal information.

Also set the default review/recipient and submittal type to be defined at the project level similar to the RFI set up.

    We have hacked a workflow together by creating issue types (submittals and RFIs).  Subs only upload to the issues module.  GC then reviews and "graduates" sub rfi or submittal to project level RFI or submittal.

    Agreed!  Often we do not create submittal registers for fast-tracked projects.  So we are still gathering submittals via e-mail.  Defeats the entire purpose.
