Nintex Community Menu Bar

HI,

 

I am using a Nintex form as a front end to record all requests that comes from various departments within my company. The form has an attachment field.

My query is, i want to add comments against each document that has been added.

Currently after adding the document i am updating the comments in a separate comments filed.

I would like to have the comments just next to the document.

Can this be done, as i am not finding a solution for it.

 

Thank in Advance

Hey @venkatch 

 

Unfortunately there is no way to have separate attachments & comments associated to them within SharePoint. This is because all of the attachments (regardless of how many attachment controls you have on a form) all go to the attachment folder on the item itself. Any "comments" collected would be stored within the list in a column(s).

The only way to achieve this would be to only allow one attachment per item and have one comments field, or leverage a library to store all of the files and add comments there. Using a library is a bit cumbersome as you would need to map out which comments go with each file.

 

Hope this helps!
