Files and Links

Each hub includes a Files and Links tab that makes it possible to upload, view, and store documents such as contracts, waivers, and images for your hub records.

DPS attaches documents to the Hub record for which they were uploaded. You can upload multiple documents for each record.

The documents are stored with the hub record. However:

• If you copy a record with attachments, to use as the basis for a new one, the documents are not copied.
• If you delete a record with attachments, the documents are also deleted from the database.

You can upload and attach documents only if DPS has been configured to allow you to attach documents and the file type is an approved file type.

File Types

The Files and Links tab supports image files, Microsoft document files, word processing files, drawing files, spreadsheets, and so on. When you upload a document, a copy of the file is stored in DPS.

DPS alerts you if the file type is one of the following, which are not allowed:

.EXE	.JAR	.WSH
.PIF	.BAT	.PS1
.APPLICATION	.CMD	.PS1XML
.GADGET	.VB	.PS2

Storage

When you upload a document, a copy of the file is stored in the FILESTREAM database and is available to search for and view in the Files Administration utility.
