What are attachment types?

Introduction

Attachment types allow you to categorize different attachments; for example, an attachment on a maintenance request record could be a designated estimate.

You can set up different attachment types for different record types. For example, for maintenance requests (work orders), you could set up two types: Estimate and Invoice.

To set up attachment types

Go to Admin > Toolbox > Custom Lists.

Select the Attachment Types tab.

Select a record type, for example, Work Order, and then enter the category names.

Click Save when you are done.

Note(s):

  • In some cases, there are hard-coded attachment types that appear in the drop-down for Attachment Type, but do not appear on the setup page. In this case, you cannot edit them or delete them. Also, some of the hard-coded types might not be applicable to your business.

  • At this time, there are not reports for specific attachments types.
