File Management

File Detail

Everything Trabalance holds about one file, and a download checked against your business first.

Navigate to: Files → click a row (the URL is /files/<id>)

The detail page shows where a file came from and lets you download the original. It is deliberately small: a file carries only what Trabalance knows about it, and nothing is invented to fill the page.

A file's detail page and the not-found state. Press Download to see the Preparing state.

What the page shows

ElementWhat it shows
Files (back)Returns to the list.
HeaderA file icon, the eyebrow "File details" and the original filename.
DownloadA primary button. Reads "Preparing" while the link is issued.
SourceA pill: where the file came from — the document type it was attached to, Journal, Payment Request, Attached, or Import for an upload made in Files.
ReferenceThe number of the document it belongs to, or —.
UploadedThe date and time the file was added, to the minute.
FilenameThe full name on its own, unbroken, so a long name can be read and copied.

There is no rename, no delete, no preview and no version history on this page — a file in Trabalance is the bytes that were uploaded, unchanged.

File not found

A file that has been removed — or an id that belongs to another business — answers the same way: "File not found. This file may have been removed, or you may no longer have access to it." with a Back to files button.

✅The two cases are deliberately indistinguishable

Trabalance never confirms whether a file exists in someone else's business. A wrong id and another tenant's id give the same answer, so the page cannot be used to discover what other businesses hold.
