I'd like to know if there's a way to set up the same media file for multiple products. We have a situation where one installation document might cover many different products. If this document is updated, we'd like to avoid having to update 50+ products and possibly missing some. I was wondering if there was a way to link a single media file to multiple products such than updating it updates all associated products.
You can use a customfield to do such a thing
That would leave no direct means to upload the file itself.
I was thinking of doing exactly this, adding a small amount of custom code to handle file upload/manipulation, but my boss would prefer that I avoid custom code if at all possible.

Just upload it as a media file
I need something that's pretty user-friendly. Adding product documents will be managed by our marketing department.
Based on your suggestions, I did find the plugin "VirtueMart attachment" (http://www.virtuemartattachment.com/), which may be a viable option.
