Is there a way for someone to reduce the size of an image they are uploading into Acumatica directly in Acumatica?

@jvinski71 Are you trying to reduce the image file size to (a) save costs or (b) improve performance? 

If you are looking to save costs, we recently started offering the the ability to move file attachments to Amazon S3 storage instead of database storage. A short video describing pro’s/con’s of database versus file system storage plus basic setup and configuration is here: https://youtu.be/cE22UNDoeSo

To answer your question, we do not have a compression algorithm built into Acumatica. If this is needed, please see this idea (https://community.acumatica.com/ideas/limit-the-resolution-for-uploaded-pictures-2511) and add insights as to why it would be important for you.

It would also be nice to have a processing screen to compress files already in Acumatica. Perhaps PDF as well.
