# How to Add Attachments and Comments to Leave

## Timecloud allows you to upload supporting documents and communicate on leave requests.

### **Adding an Attachment**

Some leave types support or require file attachments (e.g., a medical certificate for sick leave).

1. Open the **Add Leave** form or **Edit** an existing request
2. If the leave type supports attachments, an **Attachment** section appears at the bottom of the form
3. Click **Upload File** to select a document
4. The attached file name appears with a remove option
5. If the attachment is marked as required (shown with a **\***), you must upload a file before saving
