Linked Documents on the Navigation Panel displays a list of files attached to the current record. Use these links to review supplemental information about the record. You can attach Image, PDF, Document, Video, Audio, and URL Document Categories. Work Orders can also include Linked Documents attached to affiliated records.
If a paperclip icon displays after >Last on the toolbar 
, at least one linked document has been added to the record.
When you select the Linked Documents Section of the Navigation Panel, links to all the documents for the given record are immediately visible.
The default display is the file name, but you can select the name and display a description below the line.
Choose the 
Download icon to download a document and open or save for viewing. The download image allows you to print that file but gives the option to print to a different print destination if a default is set up. Click the 
Go to URL icon for linked URLs.
Work Orders and Linked Documents
Work Orders can display many Linked Documents. These can be both documents added to the Work Order itself as well as any Linked Documents associated with affiliated records. The eligible affiliated records are: Tasks, Request Log, Locations (Facility, Building, Area, Floor), and Items (Equipment, Vehicle, Asset, Group, Tool, Entity, Biomed, IT Equipment).
When needed, you have the option to prevent any of the eligible Linked Documents from displaying with the Work Order.
On the Work Order window, WebTMA gives you visual cues about the source of a Linked Document. At a glance, you can determine whether the linked file is from a record other than the Work Order. Linked Documents added from the Work Order display the Edit 
symbol as illustrated above.
Select a Linked Document name on the Navigation Panel to see an expanded list of details about the document including the source record Type.
