If any attachments are missing when opening a report, you will be asked whether the missing attachments should be downloaded. You are also shown the size of any missing large attachments and a checkbox lets you specify that these should be included in the download.

If you answer No when prompted, the attachments can still be downloaded when needed.

Upload Attachments

Upload large attachements

Upload Large

At report upload time, you may have been prompted about large attachments and you may have chosen not to upload these attachments at that time (see the Communications page of the Options dialog for more details). This command allows the upload to the server of any large attachments (for example, videos) that were not uploaded at the same time as the corresponding report.

If there are no attachments locally to upload, or there are attachments but they all already exist on the server, then a message is displayed saying that there are no large attachments to upload.

If there are attachments to upload, then you are told how many files have been detected and their total size, and you are prompted to continue with the upload or to cancel it. If you continue with the upload, the process continues in the background, with the status displayed in the status bar. Selecting the Cancel Communications command in the ribbon or in the status bar will cancel the upload.

If while an upload is in progress you attempt to close InfoAsset Mobile, or change the user, application, network, or server, you will see a message saying that server operations are still in progress and asking you whether you want to cancel those operations. Cancelling the server operations will enable the upload of the large attachment to continue.
