Find and download documents in your vault

Every document your firm has shared with you, and everything you have sent them, is kept in folders in your vault. Here is how to open a folder and download a file.

Open your document vault

A company's Files tab, the vault of documents issued to and provided by the client.

  1. Log in to your portal.
  2. In the left menu, click Documents.

You see a grid of folders. This is your company's document vault, holding the papers issued to you and the files you have provided, all in one place.

The folders you will see

The folder grid showing Issued, Provided by client and any custom folders with their counts.

  • Issued to you (blue folder) holds official documents your firm has issued to your company, such as a trade licence or a certificate.
  • Provided by you (grey folder) holds files you have sent to your firm.
  • Custom folders (amber) are any extra folders your firm has created to organise your papers, for example by service or by year.

Each folder shows a small count of how many documents are inside.

Note

You only ever see folders and files your firm has chosen to share with you. Staff-only working folders are never shown in your vault.

Open a folder and download a file

Inside a folder, each file appears as a row you can open or download.

  1. Click the folder you want to open.
  2. Inside, each file appears as a row with its name and details underneath, such as the related service, the date it was issued, an expiry date where it applies, and the file size.
  3. Click a file row to open it. It opens in a new browser tab, where you can read it or save it to your device.
  4. You can also use the small download arrow on the right of the row.
  5. To go back to all your folders, click All folders at the top.

Tip

A document that shows an expiry date is worth noting. Your firm tracks these for you on your Compliance page, so you get reminded before it lapses.

If a folder is empty

A folder with nothing in it yet simply says there is nothing there. As your firm issues documents and as you share files, they fill in automatically.
