# Files

> Upload and manage the attachment files you reference on your invoices, with virus-scan status and per-file usage tracking.

The **Files** page is your library of uploaded attachments. Upload supporting
documents once, then attach them to invoices from the editor — Fatorly keeps the
file, scans it, and tracks which document uses it. Open the page from **Master
Data → Files** in the sidebar.

## Storage usage

A bar near the top shows how much of your storage allowance you have used — for
example *49.5 KB of 100 MB used* with a percentage indicator. Keep an eye on it
as your library grows.

## The list

Each row is one uploaded file. The grid has these columns:

* **Name** — the file name (for example `Arabic Dark@2x.png`).
* **Type** — the file's MIME type (for example `image/png`).
* **Size** — the file size.
* **Scan** — the virus-scan status. A **Clean** badge means the file passed the
  scan and is safe to attach.
* **Used by** — the document the file is currently attached to (for example
  `INV-2026-00009`), or blank if it is not yet attached.
* **Uploaded** — the upload date.
* **Actions** — **Delete**.

Use the **Search** box to find a file by name, and select any column header to
sort.

## Upload a file

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the picker">
    Select **Upload file** in the top-right.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a file">
    Pick the file from your device. Fatorly stores it and runs a virus scan; the
    **Scan** column shows the result.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Attaching files to invoices

You don't have to start from this page to use a file. In the invoice editor,
open **References & Delivery → Attachments**, where you can either choose an
existing file from this library or upload a new one inline. When a file is
attached to a document, Fatorly generates a **public link** for that file so the
recipient can open it, and the document appears in the **Used by** column here.

<Note>
  The **Used by** column makes it easy to see which files are referenced by a
  document before you delete them.
</Note>

## Row actions

* **Delete** removes the file from your library. Remove a file from any document
  that still references it first.
