You can upload any type of file and associate it with a contact for your organization. Remember that volunteers are contacts too, so you may want to upload a signed volunteer contract and waiver of responsibility. For adopters, the adoption contract can be printed, signed, and a digital copy made to upload. You may want to upload animal-specific instructions you gave the adopter or foster as a reminder for later, or in case they lose it. 

Uploading files to the server

All of these types of files can easily be uploaded and available by clicking the contact's name from the Contact List. Simply click the Upload a File for this Contact button. A form pops up.

From the form that opens, click Choose File and browse your computer for the desired file. Once you click a file name, you will see the name replace the No file chosen note.

You can select to keep the file inline.
