Antwort: Re: Editable Attachment

[Florin Wach]

He Chris,

I have found a nice trick here:

You can put the WF_Doc-Element to the _Adhoc_object list, where it then will be available under the object links in the work item preview (or alternatively you create an additional import parameter for this document).

Use a delegation/subtype for the WF_Doc and under the "Basic data" of that business object type choose tab "Defaults" and change the method from "Display" to "Edit"... he,
from now on, every click on the attachments opens the document in edit mode.
I'm not sure if this is, what you want, but you might think of restricting this edit-access to special cases (i.e. only when a work item is active) and put some more coding in this method.

Best wishes,
Florin
