In certain situations TBM can automatically send an assignment confirmation to a vendor. However, this will work if the following requirements are met:

1. In a translation project, you select Workflow value, which specifies number of phases to deliver jobs.
2. In the Assignments tab of a project, you create necessary assignments for all phases of a workflow.
3. For each created assignment, you select a vendor and set status to Prepare.

If these requirements are met, TBM will perform the following actions when a vendor from a previous assignment (for example, translation), will deliver files via vendor portal:

1. Delivered files from previous assignments will be transferred to a next assignment (for example, proofreading).
2. TBM will generate purchase order for a next assignment.
3. TBM will send notifications to a selected vendor (by email or in-app, as per settings).
4. Next vendor will be able to logon to the vendor portal and download files for assigned part of work.
