Are you saying (re existing transactions), that if I was creating an order, I could not attach a file? Instead I would create the order, save it, then go to reports, search for it, pull it up as an existing transaction, and then attach the file? If you're saying that, I note that i would not prefer that method. > Additionally considering adding a checkbox to automatically attach an > invoice being emailed or printed. Meaning that the file(s) attached (one checkbox per file) would be included with the email/print job? Easy enough for email, but printing might be another matter. > The file attachment screen would prompt for input for file type and > name, and would allow the upload of the file. If the file name is not > provided the file name of the upload would be used. It should auto determine type. One of the libraries, or even the "file" command, or fallback to extension. (Assuming that's what you mean by type [MIME type].)
