Attaches files to financial appendices (vouchers), matching them by appendix number and attachment name. ## How to use the action 1\. Select the action in the **Action** field. 2. Point to your data source – a **file** (CSV or Excel) or a **SQL query**. 3. Map the source columns to Sapera's fields in the column mapping (see _Source fields_ below). 4. Run **Compare** to see what will be created, changed or stay unchanged – without writing to Sapera. 5. Run **Update Sapera** to perform the import. Use the **Allow create** and **Allow update** parameters to control whether new rows are created and whether existing ones are updated. ## How matching and updating works Each row is matched on **alternative voucher number + file name**. The file is attached to the existing finance voucher that has that alternative voucher number. - If the voucher does not exist, the row is skipped. Files already attached (same name) are not added again. - Supported file types: jpg, jpeg, png, gif, tif, webp, pdf, rtf and zip. The action only adds attachments – it does not update or delete. Direction: from file/SQL into Sapera. ## Key parameters
