Attachment Dynamic Field Settings

Maximum amount of attachments *

This setting holds the amount of files that can be stored in the dynamic field of type attachment per ticket or article. Increasing this value enables the agents to add more files. Reducing this amount does not delete attachments already stored in dynamic fields of type attachment, but reduces the possibility for adding files up to the configured maximum.

Maximum attachment size *

This setting holds the maximum file size in megabyte each uploaded file can have. If an agent is uploading a file greater than the here configured file size, the file is accepted initially. As soon as the upload is done, the size is checked and the file gets deleted as well as the user informed that the file was not stored because it exceeded the maximum attachment size limit.

Note

Do not forget to add the new dynamic field to ticket view screens.
