How to Attach Documents to a Relationship
This article explains how to add and manage documents on a relationship. For background on document types, limits and where the paperclip appears, see Relationship Documents.
Before You Start
The relationship must already exist — documents attach to a saved relationship, so create it first (see How to Create Relationships). You'll also need permission to edit the relationship. Files can be PDF, Word, plain text or Markdown, up to 25 MB each.
Method 1: From the Edit Relationship Dialog
This works from an entity's page or the Relationship Register.
- Open the entity's page (or the Relationship Register).
- Find the relationship and click Edit.
- In the Files section of the dialog, click Add.
- Choose the file, then click Upload.
Method 2: From a Diagram
- Click the relationship's link on the diagram.
- In the Inspector panel on the right, find the Files section.
- Click Add and choose the file.
Method 3: From a Loan or Lease Card
Loans, securities, guarantors and leases are managed on their own cards on an entity's page.
- On the entity's page, open the Edit dialog for the loan, security, guarantor or lease.
- Use the documents section in that dialog to add the agreement, deed or lease.
Download, Replace or Remove
Wherever the Files section appears, use the actions next to each file to download, replace, rename or delete it. Deleting can't be undone.
What You'll See
Once a relationship has documents, a paperclip appears next to it in lists and at the end of its link label on diagrams (with a count when there's more than one). See Relationship Documents for more.
