I need to have users upload PDF's and to have a link generated to the PDF but would prefer NOT to have the PDF stored in the database as a blob. Ideally the link would be added to the database automatically so that users can then view or download if necessary.
I need to allow users to enter information regarding an invoice or service ticket and then upload an scan of the document for archive. Ideally the upload would generate a link to the uploaded document and insert it in the database as a hyperlink.
Suggestions?

Hi,
you can create text field in the database, set up it as File/File on the "View as" settings/"Edit as" settings dialogs on the Visual Editor tab and save files on the disc.

In this case file name will be automatically saved in this field.
