# I've uploaded it — is that it?

_If it shows in the list with its name, it is uploaded. If data was also requested, check nothing is left unsaved._

**Responde a:** i uploaded the document and dont know if it arrived · do i need to do anything after uploading · how do i confirm the upload worked · uploaded the file can i close now

**If the document shows in the list with its name, it is uploaded.** You do not also need to send an email saying you uploaded it, or wait for someone to confirm. Whoever asked can see it in their file.

## The two things worth checking before you close

| What to check | Why |
| --- | --- |
| That the file name is the one you uploaded | It is the signal the upload finished |
| That no field is left half-filled | If data was requested, uploading the file does not save it |
| That no document from the list is missing | The ones still outstanding show at a glance |

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Closing the window with a half-filled form saves nothing.** The file does stay uploaded —that happens on drop— but the data you were typing is lost unless you save. It is the number one cause of «I did send it» / «well, half of it is missing here».

## If something went wrong, you will notice

**En corto**

- A failed upload does not leave the document half-there: it is either there or not.
- If it does not appear, upload it again. Repeating breaks nothing.
- And if the file is large, give it time before deciding it failed.

> [!WARNING]
> A detail that saves grief: **uploading the wrong file is fixable, and saying so beats covering it up**. Upload the right one and tell the requester which counts. What does not work is quietly adding the good one and hoping nobody looks at the other: whoever reviews will see both and will not know which to act on.

**Do I need to email to say I uploaded it?**

No need. They can see it in their file.

**Can I upload more than one file?**

Yes, if several are requested. Each in its place.

**Can I change it afterwards?**

Usually yes, while the request is open. Say which one counts.

## Ejemplos

**The file is uploaded, the window is closed, and the form data was half-entered.**

- Saves before closing, even with fields still empty

→ No starting over and no second request for the missing part.

**The wrong file is uploaded and the fix attempted is adding the right one on top.**

- Uploads the correct one and tells the requester which counts

→ Whoever reviews knows which to act on instead of finding two and picking wrong.

**The file shows in the list but data is still unsaved.**

- Checks whether anything is pending confirmation

→ The delivery counts as complete when it really is.

**It is uploaded and the tab closed before it finishes.**

- Waits until it appears in the list

→ The upload is confirmed rather than assumed.

**Five are uploaded and only four appear.**

- Checks which is missing and uploads it again

→ The gap is spotted before the other side spots it.

**The file name does not match what was requested.**

- Checks it was uploaded in the right place

→ One document is not mistaken for another.
