Important documents can be uploaded to an employee’s record from the Employee window.
Attention: RealStaff recommends that a new folder be created on the C: Drive (your computer's hard drive) and naming the folder: “Upload to RealStaff “. Then save all documents to this folder. This makes it easier to locate the documents when adding them to RealStaff. See How to Connect V:\ Drive for detailed instructions.
Uploading or pasting timesheets is not supported by the Mac or web version of RealStaff. A PC must be used at this time.
From the Employee window click on the Documents button.
