Attachments allow you to add external files and associate them with people, groups, registrations or even Health Center Complaints. You can upload Attachments internally or even give your Users the option to upload Attachments from the Registration or HR Site.

Attachments are great for information that doesn’t have another spot to be collected in CircuITree. Some examples include:

• CPR Certification
• Third Party Hold Harmless Forms
• Signed Guest Group Contract
