• PL Transactions, Sales Ledger/Customer (SL) Accounts

• SL Transactions, Nominal Ledger (NL) Accounts

• NL Transactions, Stock Items

• Bank Accounts, Purchase Order Processing (POP) orders.

In this blog, we we will focus on adding attachments to the SL accounts and SL Transactions.

How do I add attachments in Sage 200?

To add attachments to an account in Sage 200, simply click on the Amend Account button in your SL List.

Then navigate to the Attachments tab and click on the Add File button.

Once you do this you can browse your files and add the file you want to attach.

You can then view the file by clicking the View button.

If you want to add an attachment to an SL transaction, navigate to the Transaction Enquiry screen.

Then you’ll need to highlight the transaction you want, and click on the Attached Document button, which is located in the bottom of the screen.

Following the same steps as above browse your files and select the required file.

Once you save the file, a paperclip icon will appear next to the transaction.

You can view the attachment by clicking on the Attached Documents and then on the View button.

Additional Information

Every Sage 200 dataset should have its own attachment folder, so before you start using this functionality, ensure that each dataset has a designated folder.

You should also be aware that these files will be stored on the application server, so do make sure that you have allowed some extra disk space for them.
