Hi Ian

There are five possible conditions

1) File has been transcribed and uploaded to FreeBMD and sent
to coordinator (No action, Complete)
2) File has been transcribed and sent to FreeBMD
only. (action required)
3) File has been transcribed and sent to Coordinator only.
(action Required)
4) File Allocated but not yet transcribed
5) File not Allocated.

For this you need the Coordinators record and the FreeBMD
