How to add a file to a Kaizen?

Written by Angad Singh

You can attach a file of any format to a Kaizen, for example a report, spreadsheet or drawing. You can do this from the Kaizen side window or from the Kaizen detail view. The steps are the same in both.

Add a file

  1. Open the Kaizen you want to add a file to, in either the side window or the detail view.

Good to know

  • Other ways to add information to a Kaizen are Sketch, Photo and Web URL. See How to attach information & data to a Kaizen.

  • Uploaded files can be used by the RCA Agent (Run RCA Analysis) on the project toolbar, together with the Kaizen's fields and linked documents, to draft a 5 Whys, 4M1D and fishbone analysis.

  • To link another LeanSuite record (for example an EWO) or an external link instead of uploading a file, use Link Docs.
