Automate

Dear Winshuttlers,

Some of our internal users ignore the message on the form and still attach documents that are greater than 5 MB. Is there a way to put restriction upfront before they even click "Save and Route"? Any help would be appreciated. 

Regards,
Younus

Hi Younus,

Support may have a better answer, but the only place I've know that you can manage file size uploads is in SharePoint Central Administration -> Manage Web Applications -> General Settings and then the maximum file upload size property. However, this affects all sites in that web application and all lists and libraries, meaning you wouldn't be able to upload Composer solutions greater than 5 MB, training PDFs, etc...

It may be possible to use JavaScript to hook into the file binding once selected and check the size. That custom function could be placed on the submit button to prevent a save and route when exceeded.

Thanks, Joshua. 

Support said they will forward it to engineering. I'll try something in JavaScript. 

Have a great day!

Hi Younus,

you might try to use JavaScript custom function on 'Save and Route' to evaluate the file size. Make sure the end user browser ActiveX control's are enabled, otherwise this check will not work.

attached the sample code of attachment check function.

Hopefully this work on your scenario as well.
