How do I import the attachment with an import scenario?   The AP Document has an file attachment.  I am creating the AR Document based on the document lines in the AP Document. 

I can get the attachment file in an generic inquiry - On the APInvoice it is the NoteId

With the import scenario I have the option to update the Note Text field but do not find the option to update the Files.

At the present time, functionality to import file attachments does not exist.  This would be a great product idea to add as I have handled several support cases where this functionality was asked about.

Hi @retha50 ,

The REST API allows you to upload files. We created a small utility using C# to upload files from a folder based on a naming convention.

Hi @lauraj46 

Do you still have that utility? I was not able to find a link to download and test.

Hi @zillay ,

Yes, the utility is available to license, we do not have a link to download.  Please send me a message from the Contact page on our website and we can arrange a time to discuss or I can send you the user’s guide.

Thanks,

Laura

@ed.goodman I wanted to check and make sure that this is still the case. Does Acumatica still not support importing file attachments?

Checked the initial release notes for version 2023 R2 and did not see anything there regarding being able to import file attachments, so I would say the functionality is still not available.
