Default Attachment Document Type

Is there a way, possibly in App Studio, to set a default Document type for attachments?

You could write a BPM that returns one. There is usually one method per Business Object Type IE Order, Invoice etc, that gets an attachment. In the post method call you could set it there.

Just be careful if you are using “Reserved for specific tables” on the Doc Types.

FYI GetNewOrderHedAttchAsync is the method the is used to get a OrderHed attachment and you need to set DocTypeID to whatever you want.

Hope that helps.

Following. This is a minor gripe from our users since migrating from Classic. In Classic, we could expose the Document Type in the Tree and they could just drag the files to the one doctype we exposed. In Kinetic, they can still drag and drop, but they have to select the appropriate Document Type. They are fairly obviously named and easy to select, but I would love to default it for them, if it’s not too complex to setup and maintain.

Yeah it would be nice to have the folder back they can just drop things into. Was alot easier for the users to sort things out that way.

Post a question. It should just be a one update on the row after its been called. If you have used the BAQ designer or data directive maint your not a million miles off.

If your on prem or 2025.2 you can ask Kinetic:
