A340E No Gears After Engine Swap - Low Transmission Fluid

After swapping a 7MGTE engine, the A340E automatic transmission would not go into any gears. The owner believed the fluid level was adequate after adding ~1.5 quarts (based on drain-and-refill spec of 1.7 qt), but the transmission was actually nearly empty.
Transmission fluid level was far too low. The owner only added approximately 1.5 quarts thinking it was a simple drain-and-refill, but the transmission actually needed close to the full dry-fill amount (~7 quarts total) since it had been drained more completely during the engine swap.
