13.1.2 Setting Up the File Attachment Server

The system stores and retrieves Attachments to PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office Orders and Assignments from the server locations that you define on the Administer File Attachments page. System administrators can configure one or more servers to store attachments, set up new servers, and identify the active server. Administrators can add or modify the FTP root folder for FTP servers. These servers can be FTP, URLs, or Database servers.

Note:

FTP servers are desupported and should only be used for legacy attachments. Use URL servers which can be defined as record://, https://, sftp:// or ftps://.

See PeopleSoft FSCM: Application Fundamentals, “Defining Financials and Supply Chain Management Common Definitions,” Defining File Attachments, for instructions on setting up a file attachment server.

While setting up the file attachment server, ensure to accept the default record name PV_ATT_DB_SRV in the Server/Record Name/URL Id field.

Note:

You cannot delete a server after you save the page. After you exit the component, the system assumes that attachments could already be stored on this server location.

Note:

The Component Subdirectories group box and fields are not applicable for PeopleSoft Staffing Front Office attachments.
