If you mean to attach a document in teh same way as clciking the Paperclip in NAV 5.0 then this isn't standard in teh EP.

As its just a link to the file passing the information through would be a case of modifying the EP codeunits to understand what you are passing and updating the correct table.

The other side of the problem is how to handle the loading of the file in Sharepoint. The simplist option would be to have a documnet repository for each Customer, potentially created when you create teh customer in NAV and have the attachments functionality link to the URL of that repository. Then you wouldn't have to link indivdual docs as a user could just access the doc repository and browse all documents that way.

If you want to add specific documnets then you are going to have to do some development in Sharepoint to allow you to browse for a file, upload it to the place you want to hold it and then pass the reference accross.

It means as soon as customer is created on employee portal a document library creates with the name of the customer and all attachment goes to that document library. If I understood right then plz suggest me how to do that.

Please remember one thing that customer is using Sharepoint Services not Sharepoint server.
