Version 22.1.1

Is there any method to connect multiple existing document revisions to one business object at the same time?

Example: At the Change Request, using the Attach Existing command, can a User find and select multiple records? Or is this a one-by-one process?

If you also would like to be able to do this from Attachments / Documents, I suggest you file an idea request here on Community. The more details on the underlying requirements and uses case, the better.

Hi Matt,

 

Yes, This is possible. Tested in 22R2
From Document Revisions page, you can select multiple doc revisions and use connect to An Object option

The inverse behavior is desired as that is how things worked in pre-Aurena instances. From a business object such as a change request, users could attach multiple doc revisions to the change request without leaving the change request form.

In Cloud, we have the ability to find documents to connect to the object, but the inability to select multiple objects in the assistant is the issue.

I suggest you file an Idea on that such that we can have a look at it. It might not be very hard to implement and I think it would bring value to many customers.
