How to upload documents to Sharepoint

You need to know how to upload a document to SharePoint.

Go to SharePoint.
Click “Upload”.
Choose the file you want to upload.
- NOTE: If you are replacing an existing document, the name must match exactly otherwise any existing links will be broken.
If you are replacing a file, the pop-up window below will appear. Click “Add file”.
You will see the pop-up window below after it is successfully uploaded. This may take a few seconds.
Click the icon with three dots next to the file you just uploaded.
Choose “More” and then click “Properties”.
Fill out the following fields:
1. Title: Enter the actual title of the document.
  - NOTE: This may differ from what appears in the Name field if the document title has changed from previous versions (e.g., “Exterior Site” is now named “Express Site”).
2. Keywords: Enter any relevant keywords to make the document searchable.
3. Category: Select a category if applicable.
4. Last Modified Date: Select the date you are uploading the file.
5. Document Version: Enter the document version.
  - NOTE: The version number should match the version number within the document. Version numbers should never be included in the title (e.g., Express Site Cleaning Checklist v.4).
