&lt;p&gt;Welcome to Method! &amp;nbsp;You can definitely customize the new case form on the portal to allow for document upload. &amp;nbsp;If you&amp;#39;re new to Method I would recommend watching a few webinars &lt;a target="_blank" title="here" href="http://www.methodintegration.com/cs/blogs/methodblog/pages/Method-Community-Webinars.aspx"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; to get you started. &amp;nbsp;Some good ones for you would be the Documents Tab, New Contacts Portal, Intro to Customization then Intro to Actions. &amp;nbsp;What you want to get familar with is copying screens, how documents work and how customization and actions work. &amp;nbsp;Building a portal page to accept documents from your customers would require copying the &lt;i&gt;ContactsPortal_Cases&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;screen and customizing that to add in functionality similar to the &lt;i&gt;CRM_NewDocument&lt;/i&gt; screen. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Once you get started it&amp;#39;s quite easy to build these pages on your own using the ones we supply you with as a base.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="/cs/Themes/methodtheme/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;kinetixjake:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I read another thread on this forum referring to Community Webinar 24&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here&amp;#39;s a link to &lt;a target="_blank" title="Webinar 24" href="http://methodintegration.com/resources/webinars/CommunityWebinar24MethodCRMDocumentsDashboardandOpportunityStages.wmv"&gt;Community Webinar 24&lt;/a&gt; - please note that this is a windows only video and requires the GoTo Meeting &lt;a target="_blank" title="codec" href="http://www.gotomeeting.com/codec"&gt;codec&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We are new to method and were wondering if there is any way to customize the customer portal new case form/reply form to allow clients to upload files with their messages? I know that staff users have the capability to attach documents to a case, so why not customers?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any advice would be appreiciated. I read another thread on this forum referring to Community Webinar 24 for a similar answer, but both of the links were broken and I can not seem to find that webinar anywhere. Not sure if it would answer this question anyway..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jake&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
