Document Attachment

SUGGESTED
Posted By

I am writing to find those that have used the document attachment feature for some time now. I would like to know if you embed or link your attachments? If embedding, does Business Works run efficiently with a lot of attachments? 

We are new to this feature and would like to have input from other users as to how Business Works functions after say a years worth of documentation is embedded. 

Thanks for your response. It's much appreciated.

    BWalters-

    The Attachment Manager supports both linked and embedded. If embedded, the object is included when doing the BusinessWorks backups. Linked file are stored outside of Sage BusinessWorks and are not included in the Sage BusinessWorks backup. I don’t see any reported issues based on volume or volume creating any specific issues. But since embedded files are included in the data, just like any data it will take up space on your computer. And as you accumulate volume it could affect the process time for performing tasks like backups, rebuilds, month end closes, etc...

    For more information on the Attachment Manager I would recommend going to our Knowledge Base at support.na.sage.com to review the following articles:

    How to attach images or documents to accounts, vendors, customers, employees, parts, or jobs using the Attachment Manager (28815)

    Thanks,
