Page Location: Requisition File > Attachments
The Attachment Page holds external files and documents related to a requisition (Word docs, spreadsheets, pdfs, etc.). Attachments are saved in Cyber Recruiter, so if the file is deleted from where it originally was located, it is still accessible through Cyber Recruiter.
Based on Group Security settings, users can add, edit or delete attachments.
To add a new record, the user will click Add New Record
To edit a record in order to change the details or upload a new file, the user will click the  icon
To remove a file, the user will click the  icon at the end of the record line.
To view the attachment, click on the Description link. The file opens in a new internet browser in the proper application format (Word, Excel, Adobe Viewer, etc.) It is not possible to modify a document from here; however, the document can be saved with another file name in order to make changes.
