I am working with a customer that prefer to force the user the enter the Document Title when attaching a document to an IFS object, rather than have it default to the original file name. They are looking to define a file naming convention on their documents and can’t always ensure the original file will follow it. They primarily will be using “New” command in Document Attachments, then either dragging and dropping or navigating to the desired file. Ideal state would be after selecting the desired document, the Title would remain blank, and user would have to type a Title. I have looked around and don’t see any way to achieve this.
The best approach I can suggest is when creating a new Document, in the dialogue box enter the Document Title first, then drag/drop or browse to the desired file. Write work instruction and train users to do it this way. The manually entered title will be retained if user follows this process.
user and had to type the title before I selected the file. After doing that a few times, it would probably be second nature.
