Bulk Uploading Documents to Directory Entities in the Investor Portal
Efficiently distribute documents to multiple investor profiles using the Bulk Upload feature. This guide provides an overview of the process and directs you to the in-app guide for detailed instructions.
Overview
The Bulk Upload feature in the Investor Portal allows you to upload documents to multiple Directory Entities simultaneously, streamlining the distribution process for items like K-1s, capital call notices, and quarterly reports.
If you want to upload a single file across every investor within a fund, you should upload that file directly into the Vehicle instead of using this workflow.
Access the Bulk Upload Tool
Navigate to the Directory section of your Investor Portal and select “Bulk Uploads”. This will open the in-product guide, which provides detailed instructions and templates.
You will then select a destination folder for your files to go, across every investor profile.
Prepare Your Files
Mapping Template: Download the provided template to map each document to the correct Directory Entity. This Template provides you with all existing Directory Entity and Vehicle IDs.
Organize & Rename Documents: Ensure each document is named appropriately to match the corresponding Directory Entity.
The guide within the product will walk you through exactly how to name your files. An example is also below in the FAQ section.
Upload Documents
Use the interface to upload your ZIP file. The system will validate the files and mappings.
Review & Confirm
After uploading, a confirmation screen will display the validation results.
Address any errors by correcting the file names or mappings. You can remove errors and continue with the rest of the project. This allows you to manually upload errored files afterwards.
Finish your upload!
