Overview

Sky Ledge’s Asset Overview (Electronic Filing Cabinet) allows you to upload and store documents, images, and files directly against each asset, providing one central place to manage compliance records, service documents, visual evidence, and more.

This tutorial shows you how to upload files to an asset’s profile using four simple methods.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Access the Asset Overview

  • Start by selecting the asset from the map.

  • In the asset sidebar, click the book icon to open the Electronic Filing Cabinet (also known as the Asset Overview).

2. Navigate to the Files Tab

  • Inside the Asset Overview, you’ll see five tabs:

  • Overview

  • Events

  • Places

  • Tasks

  • Files

  • Click on the Files tab.

Four Ways to Upload Files

Method 1: Drag and Drop

  • Simply drag a file from your desktop or folder.

  • Drop it into the upload section.

  • The file will upload automatically.

  • Once it appears in the file list, click Done.

Method 2: Upload from Your Device

  • Click From Device.

  • Browse your computer or mobile device to find the file you want.

  • Select the file and click Open to upload.

Method 3: Use Your Camera (Mobile Only)

  • If you’re on a mobile device, click Camera.

  • Take a photo directly through your device.

  • The image will upload immediately to the asset’s file section.

Method 4: Upload via Link

  • Select From Link.

  • Enter the file URL using the standard upload fields.

  • This is ideal for cloud-hosted documents or reference files.

Viewing Uploaded Files

  • All uploaded files will appear in the list within the Files tab.

  • To view a file:

  • Locate the file you want.

  • Click the eye icon on the right.

  • The file will open in a new browser tab.

File Types Supported

Sky Ledge supports the upload of:

  • Images (e.g., JPG, PNG)

  • Videos

  • PDFs

  • Documents (e.g., DOCX, XLSX)

  • Other file formats

This allows for complete, centralised documentation for every asset, ensuring nothing gets lost across shared drives or inboxes.

Best Practice Tip

  • Registration papers

  • Service history photos

  • Inspection videos

  • Compliance certificates

  • Photos of damage or defects

  • Warranty documents
