Add a new or existing document to an engagement, control test, or evidence record
from the Documents panel.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_audit_ws.auditor, sn_audit_ws.supervisor

## About this task

You can add a document only while the record is open. For more information, see [Using Document Management System in Audit Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/8F8z~gYhYxGQqF_~AigbJg "The Document Management System in Audit Workspace provides a centralized repository for storing and managing documents in engagements, control tests, and evidence records. The Documents panel is a native side pane that allows you to store, version, and control access to documents linked to engagements, control tests, and evidence records.").

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllAuditAudit Workspace, and open an engagement, control test, or evidence record.
2. Select the Documents panel.  
   The panel lists the documents and folders already linked to the record.
3. Select Add, then select Document.
4. Upload a new file, or select an existing document that you own or have access to.
5. Select Add.  
   The document appears in the Documents panel for the record. If the document is already linked to other records, it now also appears in those records' Documents panels as shown in the example.
