The idea is interesting but I'd like to know the exact need first.

To my point of view, attached documents are just pieces linked to a specific item.
I don't see the interest to display all these files on Project summary.
For instance, there is no interest to show the print screen about a bug report on Project summary.
If attachements are to be show as Project pieces, then they are certainly Project Documents, and should be managed as Documents.
Now what is missing is the possibility to link a Document to an item (for instance link the specification to an evolutive activity) : it's a planned evolution coming soon.

Does this respond to your nedd ?

Thanks for rapid reply !

In fact, i want to be able to see differents documents whereever they are in the project.

For exemple, i have a milestone as COPIL for a project and i want to link the verbal account to activity.
But, when i look at the project, it's nice for me to see directly all the documents, like this verbal account, even if i don't know which activity to open for that.

I expect my english is good enought for you to understand.

Thanks again !

So the V2.2 will help you : instead of attaching a file to activity or milestone, you will link a document.
Then documents will be reachable through documents list, with search facility and filter possibility.

Thanks, that's great !

So, i re-open this topic...

In fact, after using document management, I think it will be nice to get the best of two worlds...

Now, you can use document to manage all document for project and link a document to item to enhance item following.
But, sometime, it is great to be able to link document to item (like debriefing for a meeting), and, in the same time, to be able to see that document in project's documents list...
So, prehaps we just need a flag in document attachement, saying "this document, attached to the current item, must be visible in project's documents list" or something like that...

Hi,

Sorry, I don't understand the request.

First, to be sure, you are dealing with Documents, not Attachments. Is that true ?

Then if you manage Documents, you just have to set Project for this document to have it in Documents list and restrict visibility to Project Documents.
There will be no list of Project Documents directly on the Project screen, as there will not be list of tickets or list of decisions directly on the project screen.
The Document list should do the job. No ?

I have to apologize... :unsure:

Your mysunderstanding make me to look closer at linked elements and i found what i need : because it is possible to link a document to any item, it is possible to do my need : to be able both to read a document from an item (ie : an order from expenses) and to keep a list of every project's documents.

Sorry... :S

You're welcome 😉
