You were able to add attachments to an asset as you entered it into PMXpert.  Review Enter an Asset: Attachment Tab above.

If you want to view, edit or delete these attachments, or add new ones, you can do so under the Attachments tab.  Note that an attachment can be an image, e.g. a photograph, picture or diagram, so if you want to add an image to an asset, you can do so by adding an attachment.

1.In the Assets screen, find the asset for which you want to view, change or add attachments.
2.Click on the Attachments tab in the bottom portion of the Assets screen.  Any related attachments will appear in the selection grid below.  If the Attachments tab contains any attachments, the title of the tab will be displayed in red font.  If the Main Attachment is an image and the window is large enough, the attachment preview will appear in the upper right corner of the screen.
