Remove attachment function from Workflow

Can the workflow setup be amended to stop attachments being added.

I ask because when an attachment is added to the workflow it turns the document into a ‘simple document’, meaning it won’t feed through to our site software.

We initially asked our Consultants to attach through the workflow until we discovered the problem and now it’s a complete heartache to get them to stop using that method, causing issues on a daily basis.

    Similar problem with any place in the system that allows "Attach files locally..."   As a controlled document collaboration platform, that option should NEVER be presented to people!  It defeats the whole purpose!
