  • Deployment (section 8)

Scroll down on the page and click on the 'upload a new document' button underneath the documents header.

You will be asked to provide a name for the document and a short description.

You will then be navigated to the upload screen.

Click inside the white box provided to include the relevant attachment from your File Explorer (or an alternative, such as a Collaboration Drive).

Files must be CSV, XLSX, DOCX, or PDF format, and can be up to 20MB each.

Your selected file will show in the white box.

To remove it, click on the 'click to remove' box.

To continue, click on the 'continue' button.

You will be asked to check your answers to confirm all the information you provided for that document is correct.

Click on the 'change' link if you wish to amend the information you have provided.

To confirm and upload the document, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click on the 'confirm and add document' button.
