Setting required attachments for stage entry

Updated on March 29, 2022

Maximize efficiency and speed up the case resolution process by verifying that the user provides required, relevant documentation and correspondence before a case enters the next stage.

For example, in a case for a car insurance claim, you can verify that the policyholder attaches photographs of their damaged car before the case enters the stage in which the insurance company validates the policyholder's claim.

Before you begin: Add attachment categories that reflect your business needs to your case type and ensure that you select the Required for resolution checkbox in step 5 in Categorizing case attachments.
Note: You cannot define entrance criteria for the Create stage. For more information, see The Create stage.
  1. In the navigation pane of Dev Studio, click Case types, and then click the case type that you want to open.
  2. On the Workflow tab, click a stage name.
  3. In the Stage property pane, click Validation.
  4. In the Attachments required for stage entry section, click Add required attachment to display the list of attachment categories that your case type supports.
  5. Select an attachment category from the list.
    For example: The following figure shows a design-time configuration of a stage with a required attachment. Users that process a case have to provide an attachment of the selected category to submit the case.

Result: At run time, users need to provide at least one attachment in each of the required attachment categories, otherwise the application displays an error.
