Attaching files to jobs, estimates, and invoices

  • Updated

 

In this article, you will learn how to attach files and images to jobs using the Workiz web app on desktop. 

Workiz allows you to upload files and images to jobs, estimates, and invoices that you can send to your clients as standalone files or as part of an estimate or invoice. Workiz only supports PDF, JPEG, or PNG files. If you have text-based documents created on Microsoft Word or a similar word processor, you will need to convert them into PDF documents in order to upload them in Workiz. 

The Custom Fields add-on takes files and images to the next level, allowing you to make attachments a requirement for all or specific jobs. You can also automatically include those custom fields on invoices and estimates.

To learn more about Custom Fields, please see this article.
