Customizing an Attachment Table


An attachment table is a type of table that provides the underlying data storage for the attachment business component. Unlike the attachment business component, which can support purposes in addition to file engine functionality, the attachment table stores only file engine data.

The user does not directly update the attachment table. Siebel CRM provides the user an empty attachment table. The user then uses drag and drop functionality or the browser dialog box in the corresponding file attachment applet to bring data into the empty table one file at a time.

Table 52 describes required file columns in an attachment table.

For the Name property, you must use the value described in Table 52. For the User Name property, you are not required to use the value described in Table 52.

Various system columns that are not related to the file engine are also present, such as CREATED, LAST_UPD_BY, and ROW_ID.

If the table includes a file engine column, then you must make sure the File property in the corresponding table is TRUE.
