    Hello,
    This is usually not a SharePoint connection problem, it means there are no file scenarios available in your environment yet, so the Assign scenarios page has nothing to show. In standard Business Central, the scenario you should expect here is Document Attachments - External Storage, but that only appears when the external storage for document attachments feature is available/enabled in the environment. Microsoft’s setup flow says you create the external file account first, then go to File Scenario Assignment and assign the Document Attachments - External Storage scenario to that account. So if the dialog is blank, first check that the environment is on a version where this feature is available and that the related feature has actually been enabled; uploading a file in the storage browser only proves the SharePoint account works, not that Business Central has any registered file scenarios to assign.

    @OussamaSabbouh, I've already created an account as you can see in below image.


    I can attach the files in the Storage Browser and it's reflecting in the SharePoint folder. While I'm trying to upload the file from any document (i.e., Customer, Vender, Item, SO) then it's getting uploaded in the Business Central Storage instead of SharePoint.
