BPM to prevent files from being uploaded during attachment? (9.0

Yahoo Archive
1
In 9.05, there's a "File System Document" attachment type that actually uploads the file to a share rather than just linking to the file location. That's what I'm using.

I've got a Pre-Process Directive that bails on the method, and I've verified that it doesn't create an XFileRef/XFileAttch record, but it still uploads the file. So now I've got an orphaned file on the server w/ no record in Epicor to tie it back to...

Anyone else using File System Documents?

When attaching a file to a receipt, the Receipt.UpdateMaster method is called and sends the file path to Epicor.

I can hobble together BPM code to prevent the XFileRef and XFileAttch records from being created, but it doesn't stop the file from getting uploaded to the file share.

Does anyone know how to prevent the uploading from happening?

Are you using something other than standard file attachment? Standard file attachment only stores the file location, it doesn't actually do anything with the file.
