Create attachment with Infor System-Link

This workflow component, Create attachment with Infor System-Link is only available when IBM i features are enabled, or InterFormNG2 is installed on an IBMi.

​

The component creates an attachment which contents is the current payload of the workflow, so you need to prepare the payload first. If you e.g. want to use a PDF file, then you first should e.g. insert the workflow component, Create PDF document to merge an input xml (or spooled file) into a PDF in the payload.

  3.  Domain class
    This is the owning domain class in the System-Link request.
  4.  File path and name
    The IFS location where the attachment should be stored. This will be the MediaFilePath on the System-Link request.
  5. Delete the file from IFS after creating attachment
    If checked, then the above file will be deleted from IFS once the attachment has been created.
  6.  Embedded, View, Open, Print
