Hi Malin,

Regarding the requirement to mandate attachments for specific absence types like Medical Leave, there is no standard, out-of-the-box functionality in IFS Cloud that allows you to configure mandatory attachments per absence type directly through simple settings.

To achieve this, we have successfully implemented a custom solution using an event action. This action triggers during the absence registration process, checks the absence type, and validates whether an attachment has been added for those specific types (e.g., Medical Leave). If not, it prevents the user from submitting the request and prompts them to attach a supporting document.

This solution is working effectively to meet the exact requirement you described.

I would be happy to share the details of this event action configuration with you or discuss it further if you think it would be beneficial.

Best regards,

Syed Mohsin

Hi ​@Syed,

Thank you. I will try this out.
