GP 2013 SP2 Delete Document Attachments

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi All,

 

I'm looking all over for the security task that will allow users to delete attachments (from a sales invoice), but can't find it.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

    I too had this issue.  The delete ICON was not showing on the Vendor attachment screen.

    I dug through the security but that was NOT the issue.  The issue was in the DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT ATTACHMENT SETUP.

    You must have the option Allow Document Attachments to be deleted checked on.

    There is not specific user security that prevents one person from deleting versus another.  You can set a password though.  This may be viewed as a shortfall in the security setup for this recently added function.

    Hi JKatulka,

    All the security for document attachments are managed by the these 5 tasks listed below.

    1. Document Attachment File Utility .

    2. Document Attachment Inquiry.

    3. Document Attachment Management.

    4. Document Attachment Setup.

    5. Document Attachment Status Inquiry.

    All these tasks are available under the Product: Microsoft Dynamics GP and Series: Company.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards,

    Appasaheb

    Not sure if this is different on older builds, but in GP 2013 SP 2, deleting attachments must be allowed on the Document Attachment Setup window (GP | Tools | Setup | Company | Document Attachment Setup).

    You can always troubleshoot security using the information in the following KB all you need is a user that can complete the action and a Dexsql.log turned on.

    However looking at this there is no security set to do this. Can you expand on what you are seeing?
