Thanks a lot
for the response Mark. Even I am doing the same solution as you suggested, but
it’s not a suitable way to do it. I will raise it in Bugzilla too…
Thanks & Regards

Query
Hi
Saravanan
I am working on a similar actvity with my own organisation's quality processes
(as well as working as a Committer on OpenUP).
You are correct in saying that only the Template product type provides a form
field for defining attachments. However, it is also possible to refer to
attachments as content hyperlinks to external files in the content description.
If you do this, Composer will copy the file into the method Library you are
working in, adding it to the overall source set. It is then possible to version
control the file within the cvs or clearcase repository you may be using.
Although this does not seem as elegant as using a dedicated form field within
Composer, it offers a viable workaround.
Have you considered raising a bugzilla entry to add the functionality you
describe? It sounds like a reasonable request.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards
Mark Dickson

Query
Hi
Can some one
answer my following EPF queries?
- Why we are not allowing attachments for all guidance
types, currently it’s allowed only for Template Guidance type. For
organizations which already have a stable process and wants to enhance the
system with EPF, it looks to be a bottle neck since it’s not
allowing me to upload the existing guidance’s in the organization.
This is more necessary because in larger organizations guidance are off
different formats like, doc, excel, e-learning materials etc.
- Similarly along with attachment option, we should also
provide an option to give the URLS for the guidance’s. So that
the end user will have the freedoms to neither upload the Guidance
documents nor give the URL for the same.
Thanks & Regards
