Using the Application Tools
Attachments
The attachment capability is located throughout the application and at every level of your
infrastructure navigation tree. The Attachments section is located in the Detail View on the
Notes and Attachments tab.
Note: You must have a viewer installed for the selected file type on your client machine to
view the attachment in an HTML formatted window.
You can use attachments to better illustrate needed information about your network.
Attachments may include network drawings (e.g., Visio, AutoCAD), digital photos, MS Excel
and MS Word documents, PDFs and more.
To add an Attachment:
1. From any Attachments area, click Add.
2. If desired, type any specific comments in the Comments section of the pop-up window.
3. To select the file, click Browse, navigate to your attachment, then click Open.
4. Click OK. The attachment is uploaded to the Attachment area and a Time/Date/User
stamp is included with the file.
Note: The user stamp only appears in the software if security is turned on and is used. If
the user stamp is not turned on, the Time/Date/User stamp will not be included with the file.
5. When you get the message stating “Attachment successfully attached,“ click OK.
6. Click Save to permanently save all attachments and changes.
CAUTION!
If an attachment has the same name as one that is already added in the same section, the
second attachment will overwrite the first attachment. To prevent this, make sure you
choose a different name for the attachment file.
