Download and Print Failed Documents from a Batch - Notice Manager

- Certified Mail
- Certified Mail with return receipt
- Certificate of Mailing

Document delivery can fail due to reasons such as an incorrect street address or email address. You can now download a specific failed document from a batch and resend it via alternate means without downloading the entire batch.
Navigate to Notice Manager by expanding Tools from the left navigation in Hummingbird, click the desired batch of documents, and then Download Failed Documents corresponding to a failed batch.
