Q: I need to link a file to an employee record, but it is not in a web-enabled location, it is just on my local drive. Is there a way to do this?

A: If the file you wish to link is not in a web-enabled location and does not have a URL, you can use these steps to create a URL for any file you want to link to your employee record (Web interface only) :

1. Create a dummy training record to use for uploading the document. Open this record to the Detail page.
2. Click the "Upload" link next to the "Link the File" field.
3. Choose the file that you want to upload, and click "Upload".
4. Click the link next to the “Open Linked File” field to open the file you selected in your web browser.
5. Copy the URL of the web page and paste it into the “Linked File” field on the Employee Detail page.

 You can reuse the dummy training record to create a URL for any file you need to link to an employee record.
