4.5 Uploading documents

Upload files makes it possible to upload one or several documents.

To distinguish documents from each other, it’s important to have descriptive file names. You don’t need to repeat information that already exists as metadata in the folder (For example, company and year). File names can also be changed in ShareControl by editing the document’s properties. To view the documents, click on the arrow that appears in the folder when documents are uploaded. “” is only shown when there are files in the folder. Folders without this character don’t contain any documents.

If you have received documents as attachments in emails and want to upload them to a folder, you can drag the files directly from an e-mail to a SharePoint folder.

If you want to use the drag-and-drop method when uploading, open Upload files and drag the files you want to upload to this window.

We strongly recommend having descriptive filenames so that it is easier to understand the contents of the file. This also provides better search opportunities.
