Adding and Deleting PO Attachments

You can add multiple attachments to a purchase order as long as your agency allows PO attachments and your Disburser Administrator assigns the Purchase Order – Add/Delete Attachment to one of your roles. The Disburser Administrator also configures the file type and number of allowable attachments. The attachments can include specifications for the items on the PO that you want the vendor to apply, contract information, or other information related to the Purchase Order.

IPP allows attachments up to approximately 10 MBs per attachment.
