Uploading Documents

How to upload documents in SES.

About this task

SES allows you to upload documents in various places throughout a supervisory activity. Use these steps to manually upload documents.

You do not need to use identifiers when naming a file. The system adds identifying attributes to the name of the document when it is uploaded to the system (e.g., the relevant AFR and information request, loan request, or matter requiring attention ID number).

Please note the following restrictions with regard to file uploads in SES. It is recommended to use a ZIP folder or File Sharing Links when uploading large files or more than 25 files at a time.
  • File formats supported: SES will accept all file formats, but the following commonly supported file types are recommended: PDF, Word®, Excel®, CSV, ZIP
  • Max file size: 1 GB
  • For files larger than 1 GB1:
    • Use ZIP compression to reduce file to less than 1 GB1
    • Split the file into multiple smaller files
    • Use File Sharing Links.
  • Max no. characters per file name: 200
  • Max no. files per upload: 25, for uploads larger than 25 total files:
    1. Upload first 25.
    2. Select the Save Draft option in Available Next Actions then click the Save Draft button.
      Note: You may need to refresh the screen to see that the files have uploaded to the system.
