Document Action

Use this field to specify the type of action to be taken by the event handler. This field is used with the Attach application event action.

The contents of this field must use this syntax:

actionType

where actionType is one of these values in the Document Action drop-down list:

• Attach: Attaches a new document (file) to the record being acted on. You must specify the particulars about the file to be attached, at a minimum, the Document Name and the Document Type.
• Link: Links to a document that has already been imported into the system. You must specify the particulars about the file to be attached, at a minimum the Document Name.
• Update: Updates the contents of a document that has already been attached.
• Detach: Detaches a document that is currently attached.

When you click OK to return to the Event Actions form, the application "wraps" this content within a DOCACTION( ) parameter, which yields this final syntax:

DOCACTION(actionType)
