Allow adding, editing, removing attachments on Promotion Request object.

Allow adding, editing, removing attachments on Promotion Request object.

Promotion request is another vehicle that allows component parts or documents promote from initial state to their released states. In a way, customers see Promotion Request also as a kind of change object. All the change objects like ECN, ECR, Problem Report, Deviations and Waivers allow adding, editing and removing attachments through create and edit UI. But Promotion Request object is an exception for some reason in not allowing attachments in create and edit UI. But this exception is only at client layer as Promotion Request implements content holder interface and through APIs in the back end, files can be attached to Promotion Request object.

Please add the UI functionality as well to allow users to add, edit and remove attachments on Promotion Request object through UI.

Thanks!

Promotion Request implements Content Holder hence I would like to have attachment view, add, edit and remove feature in GUI too.

could you please verify if this is a duplicate idea?

Thanks.

Marco Tosin‌ - This idea is for attachments - not for Edit function on Promotion Requests

Does PTC have any plans of implementing this functionality?

Has PTC determined a path forward for this?  It's been 5 years.

Migration of Promotion Request and promotion approval processes are not supported by PTC. While Promotion Requests can be migrated using custom loaders. If we generate report for respective promotion approval process, the same (pdf) can be attached to promotion request and migrate to target systems.  So that target system will have legacy promotion requests and their approval process captures in pdf report which is attachment to that promotion request object.

So having attachment to promotion request can be very useful during migration projects.
