Resolution

Configuring Document Attachment Settings

  1. In Admin Center
  2. Go to Company System and Logo Settings
  3. Find the "Document Attachment" session

Please refer to document Configuring Document Attachment Settings | SAP Help Portal to learn the fields that can be configured.

The email notification on the storage will be received by all active users that have any one of the following permissions/configurations:

  • Any general administrative permissions
  • Access to Document Categories/Document Attachments
  • Any users listed in Company System & Logo Settings > Additional Recipient List for Attachment Storage Alerts (maximum 5 recipients separated by semicolon)

These notifications will be sent according to the value set in "Attachment Limit Notification Monitor Period" setting:

  • 1d=once a day
  • 3d=once every three days
  • 7d=once every seven days
  • Never=default is never

The email is only generated when document storage usage reaches the percentage set in "Start sending alerts when the storage usage reaches the following percentage of the total allocation" setting. These emails are intended to alert the customer that they need to delete documents or contact their Account Team/CEE to request more storage.

NOTE: The time (1/3/5/7 days) stands for how often the Attachment limit job will be run to check if the storage usage exceeds the threshold.

NOTE: Any user which has any Admin permission will be included in the email notification sent out. 

Please refer to this help guide > filter by Administrator permissions under the "Permission Section" column - if any of these admin permissions assigned to any user, the user will be included in the storage notification.
