Business value

This feature improves user productivity by preventing users from losing context within Finance and Operations apps when opening record attachments.

Feature details

Users might want to open attachments in a new window instead of in place from the Attachments page. This is especially useful in cases where attachments are being stored in SharePoint, because opening the attachment in a new page prevents the Finance and Operations user session from resetting.

The Open attachments in new window option to change this behavior for all users on the environment can be found on the Document management parameters page under the General tab.
