It's already on our todo list, like a lot of other features ![:)](/media/kunena/emoticons/3.png ":)") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzMxNjgyLWNlbnRyYWxpemVkLWRvY3VtZW50LW1hbmFnZW1lbnQtZmVhdHVyZT90bXBsPW1hcmtkb3du) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[finisher](/forum/user/4830-finisher "View finisher's Profile")** - [![finisher's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/4830-finisher "View finisher's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/4830-finisher) Less More - Posts: 10 - Thank you received: 0 - - 14 years 10 months ago [\#33938](#33938) by [finisher](/forum/user/4830-finisher "View finisher's Profile") Replied by *[finisher](/forum/user/4830-finisher "View finisher's Profile")* on topic *[Re: Centralized document management feature](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/31682-centralized-document-management-feature#33938 "I am currently having some trouble filling my product database regarding the downloads/documents.

And the same applies for the product photos. And for both it should be possible to exchange a photo/document from within the product configuration page, rather than delete the old one and upload a new one.
