The mass update for an award must be saved prior to adding an attachment.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not applicable
• D. Unknown

Answer: (A)

Attaching documents is tied to a specific stored record, identified by an ID. When you perform a mass update to awards, the system creates or updates those award records and assigns their IDs. Only after the parent records exist can you attach files, ensuring each attachment has a concrete destination and avoiding orphaned attachments. If you try to attach first, there’s no saved record to reference, which can cause linkage failures or data integrity issues, and the system will typically require saving before attachments are allowed. So, saving the mass update first is the correct workflow.
