Attachment of Files

ERPNext allows the attachment of files to the documents. Even users with a 'Read permissions' on a particular document will also be able to access files attached to it.

How to Attach a New File

There are several ways to attach a file to a document.

From Browser

By drag and drop

Link

If you use a separate server for files or use online services like Dropbox or Docs, you can attach a file by providing a link to a particular file.

For hosted users, the limit of 5 MB is applied on file size.

Attachment of too many files to documents may affect the performance of your ERPNext account. You can set a limit towards the maximum number of attachments that can be added to a document. Click here to learn more about it.
