View Attachments

As a Founder or Trading Partner admins and users, view a list of attachments for each document submitted for a business flow step directly on the Documents dashboard page.

Example Use case

In your supply chain network, as a Trading Partner, you frequently need to verify the road safety compliance certificate attached with the Shipping documents submitted by the third party logistics service contractors or you want to ensure that a proof of delivery certificate is attached during document submission.

For such scenarios, Intelligent Track and Trace provides instant access to a list of attachments available for quick preview or download from Documents dashboard view.

Alternatively, attachments can also be viewed and downloaded from Documents summary details page or from Documents trace view.

The Attachments drawer provides the following information associated with each document and the attached files.

Page Element	Description
Document Name	Specifies the name of the document submitted for a business flow step.
Attachments	Specifies the number of attachments uploaded during document submission. The snapshot view provides the following details: Icon indicating file type Filename with file type extension Preview attachment Download individual attachments
Supported files	Thumbnail image of a supported file type, such as, PDF, PNG, TXT and so on. See Supported File Types.
Unsupported files	N/A if the attachment belongs to an unsupported file type. See Unsupported File Types.

Note: In case of document versioning, attachments are tightly coupled with document versions. For example, let us assume that for a business flow you attached a few attachments with Purchase Order document, later you revised the Purchase Order document and submitted as version 2 without any attachments. In this case, you can only view attachments with

Purchase
                    Order

document version 1 submitted previously and not with version 2 of the document.
