What you will accomplish

Documents connected to the right grant, requirement, or spend event.

Step-by-step guide

Step 1

Choose the right document location

Use Documents for grant-level and requirement-level files. Use spend-event detail screens when the file is backup for a specific imported transaction or reimbursement item.

Step 2

Upload the file with clear metadata

Select the grant, optional requirement, document type, and description. Use file names that an auditor or reviewer can understand without opening every file.

Step 3

Link files to requirements

When a file proves a requirement was completed or reviewed, attach it as evidence. Accepted evidence can then be included in audit package views.

Step 4

Attach backup to spend events

Open a specific spend event and attach invoices, receipts, payroll backup, or other support. This keeps reimbursement evidence tied to the exact transaction.

Step 5

Confirm download access

Open the document detail screen and test download or preview. The app stores the file privately and serves it through authenticated download routes.
