In SAP systems, the handling of file attachments for recurring vendor invoices depends on the specific configuration and business processes. By default, SAP ERP stores attachments associated with the original document. However, when a recurring document (such as an invoice) is created, the attachment of the original document is not automatically transferred to the subsequently generated documents. If the function is required that attachments are to be included with each recurring document, this must usually be achieved by means of a special adjustment (customizing) or by developing an additional function. This may require, for example, adjustments to the document management system (DMS) or specific ABAP development to copy or link the attachments accordingly. It is important to speak to your SAP system administrator or an SAP consultant who knows your specific system environment and business requirements to implement a suitable solution.
