Adding attachments that were lost

Help has arrived, @KJOHNSTON0312. 

I'll help you ensure you can add those missing attachments back to QuickBooks Desktop.

An Attach folder is made and stored in the same location as the QuickBooks company file when utilizing QuickBooks Attached Documents. The connection between the company's file and the attached documents will be damaged by renaming the file or moving it to a new location.

To fix the problem, re-link the Attached Documents. Here's how. 

1. Browse to the location where your company file is stored and open the Attach folder.
2. If there is NO folder with the new company file name, change the name of the folder to match the new name of the company file.
3. If there is a folder with the new company file name, open the folder with the OLD company file name.
4. Copy and paste the contents of the Inbox folder into the Inbox sub-folder of the folder with the new company file name.
5. Copy and paste the contents of the Txn folder into the Txn sub-folder of the folder with the new company name.
6. From the QuickBooks Company menu, select Documents then Repair Attached Documents Links.
7. Click Repair Links.
