    Anyone have docxtender installed on a self hosted version of business central?

      DocXtender is not available for on-premise installs – it is for Microsoft Business Central SaaS only.

    Hi Support,

    what if i would like to use this og General Journal where attachments aren’t stored in Document Attachment but in Inc. Doc. Attachment Overview (table 137).

    Can this be done?

      Only document attachments are supported.
      The Business Central page must have a “Document Attachment FactBox” pointing at a valid single record on any page you want to use DocXtender. The Attachment or Link factbox (not just the tab) must also be visible, so you may need to open personalization to add it. To add attachments to any Business Central page that does not include the factbox, see: https://kb.dmsiworks.com/knowledge-base/extend-for-drag-and-drop-document-attachments-to-any-table-and-page/ (this only adds the drag & drop function – you still need to add the attachment function to the page first).
      Trying to attach files to journals would not be easy since you would first need to customize for the attachments and then add logic to handle where they flow to (attachments do not flow to related records unless the logic exists). Journal attachments have not been tested, so results of attempting them are unknown and not covered by support.

    The extension is attempting to upload an attachment tied to the Purchase Line rather than the Purchase Header. Please advise.

    Hi Support,

    users are getting following message
    “DocXtender was not able to create a sharePoint link.
    SharePoint’s Message: Error not fund.
    Please review your Sharepoint Host, Site, and Folder in the DocXtender setup page.
    if this is a duplicate file you want to add. change Duplicate behavior to Replace or Automatically rename”

    User has “super” Access and DocXtender setup is already have setup with “Automatic Rename”

    Any suggestion?
