File locations
File locations in System Settings is used to specify default file locations for various file types.
 | If you make any changes in the file location settings, those changes are reflected only after you re-login into Planon ProCenter . |
By means of a link field, end users can link a file that has not been created in Planon ProCenter , such as a Microsoft Word document or an image file. The files linked in Planon ProCenter should be stored on a file server, making them accessible for all Planon users.
Before end users can use the functionality for linking files, you – as a Planon administrator – first have to:
• Specify file locations on the file server for the various file types. Refer to File upload settings or Specifying the file locations on a web server (via WebDAV protocol).
 | For uploading files in the Planon application, make sure the file names do not contain any of the following special characters as this will result in an error: # pound, % percent, & ampersand, { left curly bracket, } right curly bracket, \ back slash, < left angle bracket, > right angle bracket, * asterisk, ? question mark, / forward slash, blank spaces, $ dollar sign, ! exclamation point, ' single quotes, " double quotes, : colon, @ at sign, + plus sign, ` backtick, | pipe, = equal sign |
