As a Chorus processing user, when I add an attachment (Word or Excel) these documents have a document name as shown in the diagram below.
Once it is created in Chorus each attachment is given a 12‑digit Collection ID and the original filename is stored in the FLNM lob field as meta data as shown in the diagram below.
When I subsequently download or view the attachment, it uses the Collection ID as the filename in the banner.
The use of the Collection ID in the banner is confusing as I am not able to see at a glance what the document is, particularly as I will have multiple documents open. I also have to share these documents with others and the name of the document is incorrect.
Therefore when I save the document I have to rename it back to the original document name which introduces potential errors as I must follow a specific naming convention.
When an attachment is opened in its native application, the application banner will display the meta data held in the LOB field (FLNM) and the file to be downloaded with the document name (FLNM).
There was an enhancement made to ROS 2.5 that has the functionality being requested.
The source type MASTER has been set up as Revisable:
The user has created the MASTER attachment (revisable):
The original filename (FLNM) can be set by the user before launching the selected template.
When the native application is launched, the meta data from the FLNM is displayed in the banner:
When using the save as function, the meta data from FLNM is used.
