[Fmpro] Rapid Cue

[Mark Northam]

I believe you can get copies of sheets you've submitted via the new system
and revise them. As far as legacy information, that would be fantastic if it
were available, however information to-date suggests that is not a function
included with the Rapidcue system.

Doug Wood?

Shawn LeMone?

It's your system - can you please help us out here - more details would be
helpful.

Best,

Mark Northam
