Attachment "New" button not visible for attaching file.

Posted on by 209

Hi Community Experts,

I am seeing a problem in the standard functionality of Dynamics 365FO.

I am trying to attach a document on the form "EssPersonIdentificationNumberFormPart".

But when I click on attachment button there's no "New" button.

These two tables are my data sources inside from

In Organization Administration > Document Management > Active Document Table, I have added both of these tables but still the "New" button is not available.

I am not sure what I am missing in this configuration?

Looking forward to helpful responses.

Best Regards.

    Hi Chota hukam,

    See if there is any extension class written for document management form.

    Also see on the "Manage attachement--- My information tab form new button is visible or not.

    Also you can add the debugger on document management form. New button will be enabled or disabled based on certain condition. So check what it is returning.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    The user has system admin rights.

    Also is there any security role assigned to the user you are testing with?

    Thanks,

    So here they are adding a menu item button and mapped directly the document management form.

    Instead of that .

    Create one command button.

    On the command property - Set to "DocumentHadling" and check whether its working.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    That's how the button's being added in the form at the moment.

    How they added the attachment button?

    Is that a command button and command set to DocumentHandler?

    I don't think adding attachment button in this form wont work.

    I tried adding this button using extension - When I click on the "Attachment" nothing is happening. - Because in standard they have disabled the attachment options.

    So instead of that you can make use of that  "ManageAttachment " option on My information tab. Also you can add multiple attachments.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    Hi Girish,

    Yes you are right, this is a custom button added by another developer.

    Can you please let me know they way around to make it work if its custom attachment button ?

    Hi Chota Hukam,

    I don't think there is attachment button on the "EssPersonIdentificationNumberFormPart" form.

    Because I cant see the attachment button in ESS workspace.

    Which D365 F & O version you are using?

    Can you double check is there a any extensions available for that form?

    Also you can make use of "Management Attachment " option on My information tab.

    Thanks,

    Girish S.
