Attaching files

You can attach files to a record using the Attachments pane.
Note: You can upload files and images up to 2,048 MB. Files generated through Adobe Illustrator (AI) are limited to 128 MB for each AI file upload.

See configuring the file upload size limit in the Infor PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.

  1. On an entity record, open the Attachments pane by clicking the Attachments icon.
  2. Click Upload/Add Attachments.
  3. Click Add from Local File. Alternatively, you can click Add from library to select files from the document library.
  4. Click ADD. Alternatively, you can click ADD AND CLOSE to add the uploaded file and close the action pane.
    If you upload a file with an unsupported file extension, the upload fails. The Task Monitor progress bar turns red, and a message states that the file type is not supported. If you must upload an unsupported file type, discuss with your administrator if you should configure the MIME type in Infor Document Management.

    If you attach a file to a Style record, you can verify the number of attached files in the Attachments field in Style List view. You can also create an advanced filter to show only Style records with an attachment.

    See Advanced filtering for styles.

  5. Optionally, validate these columns:
    • Tab: Shows the record section where the file was uploaded.
    • File Name: Shows the name of the uploaded file.
    • Preview: Shows a preview of the uploaded file.
    • File Size: Shows the size of the uploaded file.
    • File Type: Shows the file extension of the attached file. This column is available in the Style module. You can configure the File Type column display through Manage Views in the Style area.

    • Description: Shows the available description for the uploaded file. For quality inspection, pattern, and partner modules, you can provide a description for each uploaded file.
    Note: For Style, Material, and Trim modules, you can provide a note and a description for each uploaded file on the Attachments tab.
