  1. If one more than customer will get our mail, only the amount of them will be show
  2. Same with the documents

Also the user could send multiple documents to multiple customer and sales representative using the grid tab. The same pop-up window will appear but the information of the customer will not appear just because could be included a lot of customer. So, for example if we have selected 10 documents to be sent to 10 customer the message below will appear.

The other functionalities described at the first point will work in the same way for the multi-selection.
