Attachments Item
Use the Attachments item on the toolbar of certain Professional Development pages to attach documents to a record. The Attachments page also enables you to access or delete the attachments that display for a record. Attachments can include word-processing documents, spreadsheets, reports, email, photographs, and other files.
While you can attach virtually any type of file, your ability to access it depends on having the appropriate software on your computer. For example, if you attached a document created with Microsoft Word, you must have either Word or a compatible word-processing program installed to open the document.
The size of file attachments is limited to 10 MB. In addition, access to the Attachments page may be restricted by security.
