***

### How to Manually Attach a Document to a Transaction

1. Open a transaction from **Ledger, Banks & Cards**, **Vendors**, or **Customers.** 
2. Click the **Comments** icon in the upper-right corner.
3. **Browse** or **Drag & Drop** your file into the attachments box. 

* Supported file types: PDF, JPG, PNG, DOCX, CSV
* You can upload multiple files per transaction.

**Tip:** Upload contracts, receipts, or bills here instead of keeping them in email threads — everything stays connected and searchable.

### Viewing Linked Transactions

Once a document is uploaded, it automatically appears in the **Vault**.\
When you open it, you’ll see a **Linked Transactions** panel on the right showing:

* Transaction date
* Transaction amount
* Linked account or category

Click the linked transaction to jump directly to its details view.

### Other Ways to Attach or Link Documents

In addition to manually attaching files directly to a transaction, you can also add documents to Digits in other ways. When possible, :sparkles: Digits will automatically link them to the correct transaction.

#### Upload or Drag & Drop

You can upload or drag & drop documents (like receipts, bills, or statements) into:

* **Vault**
* **Reconciliations**
* **Checklist**
* **Bills or Expenses workflows**

Digits will scan the document and attempt to match it to the correct transaction based on details like vendor, date, and amount.

#### Email Documents to Digits

Each business or client in Digits has a **unique email address**.

You can forward or email documents (receipts, bills, statements) to that address, and Digits will:

* Store the file in **Vault**
* Identify the document type
* Route it into the correct workflow
* Attempt to link it to a transaction when possible

#### Important to Know

* Automatic matching is **not guaranteed**
* If Digits can’t confidently match a document, it will remain in Vault
* You can always manually attach the document to the correct transaction
