| The Document attribute type represents document files. The term “document” here has relatively broad sense. Usually document files are reports in the PDF format or MS Word or MS Excel files, however, essentially any file can be treated as document (see also [[2000_concepts:0900_prod_feats:0200_working_with_docs_reports:0100_doc_man|Document Management]]). When an attribute of this type is shown on a form of the business object that owns the attribute //**AwareIM**// generates the Browse button that allows the user to attach any file as the attribute value. | The Document attribute type represents document files.

| The initial value property for attributes of the Document type are different from the Initial Value property of other attribute types explained in the [[docs:2500_config_apps:0700_add_edit_attributes:0100_common_props|Common Properties]] section. You can only initialize the attribute of the Document type with the name of a Document template defined in the business space version (see [[docs:2500_config_apps:1300_add_edit_doctemp|Adding/Editing Document Templates]]) or not initialise the attribute at all. | The initial value property for attributes of the Document type are different from the Initial Value property of other attribute types explained in the [[2500_config_apps:0700_add_edit_attributes:0100_common_props|Common Properties]] section.
