Attachments Tab
Attachments are files attached with a description by clicking the New Attachment button on the Attachments Tab. Double-click on a saved attachment to open it or select it and click the View button.
Attachments also include any Notifications associated with the Concern that are emailed or printed when the Auto Save feature is enabled.
Accounts include the same functionality for saving files, see the Documents Tab.
Users must have the necessary application installed to open and view a Document based on the file name extension within Windows®. For example, a document with the extension .doc would be viewed using Microsoft® Word™.
Attachments are copied into the database so that local copies of the file do not need to be kept elsewhere and the files are accessible to other Everest Users.
Attached files use the Control Id as a prefix for the file name. This naming convention eliminates conflicts of attaching files with the same name to more than one . When a file with the same name is attached more than once, the system will append a number (1..2..3..etc) to keep the file name unique.
The maximum file size for attachments is 12 megabytes.
