Attachment Element Properties
The Attachment element enables you to attach files or documents to a form.
Attachments added to a Form during the workflow are visible on the Documents page, within the Supporting Documents field.
Attachment elements can be used in repeating elements, but cannot be used in repeating elements which are contained within another repeating element such as a nested repeating table.

AttachmentControlValidationType – Standard behavior searches the file name for known illegal characters, and then present an error if a file name contains those characters.
AttachmentControlValidationRegExp – Regular expression to use with custom Attachment Control validation. Defaults value is ^([a-zA-Z0-9_ ]+\.?)+$
If you are using the Attachment Control Upload Document to SAP, then make sure the Attachment Control is part of Repeating Table (having FILE_BYTES column). Attachment Control to upload document to SAP cannot be placed outside Repeating Table, as binding of non-repeating and repeating field cannot be same, for example FILE_BYTES.
