This opens your file manager. Locate the file(s) you wish to upload. In the example below, two files have been selected by holding down Ctrl while clicking on the needed files, or you many drag and drop the files. Note that when dragging and dropping a file, the file will open in another browser window as a preview. This can be helpful if you are not sure of the exact file needed. In our example below, notice both files are Bill of Ladings. Press Open.

The files are added to Add Document and both documents are listed individually. Document properties can be added on a document-by-document basis using the scroll to access all documents. If all documents are the same document type, save time by clicking the Apply document properties to all button. This button will only appear if there is more than one document being added.

Once the Apply document properties to all button is clicked, the screen will condense, as in this example. Enter the Document Type and it will be applied to all documents. The Description will then autoload with Bill of Lading as well. Click Save.

The activity is noted as Added in addition to the notation of the date and time the document as added. Additional details are in the corresponding box to the right, which include who added the document, the Document Type, the Document Description.
