How do I transmit DCA data from SDL Desktop?

This is typically done monthly.

To check the last transmission date: go to the Info tab of any module (Construction is a good reference) — the Data Status area near the top shows the Last DCA Transmission date.

To send a new transmission: 1. Go to Tools > Construction Options > DCA tab. 2. Confirm the last sent date, the DCA’s default recipient email (doesn’t need to be changed), and the auto-filled “from” address. 3. Optionally verify the System Number and County/Municipality Code — these are fixed per township and can’t be edited. 4. Click Start to send the file to the DCA.

You’ll receive a confirmation email shortly after, confirming successful transmission.
