# Attach files to a standard change template

Attach files, such as documents, spreadsheets, and images, to a standard change proposal. Standard change templates copy any file attached to the template to a change request that the template creates.

## Before you begin

Role required: itil or admin

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Change** > **Standard Change** > **My Proposals**.

2.  Open the proposal that you want to add the attachment to.

3.  Select the Manage Attachments icon \[Omitted image "attachfiles.png"\] Alt text: to browse and select the file.

    The attached file appears at the top of the proposal.

    **Note:** You can add more than one file as an attachment.

4.  Select **Update** and request approval for the proposal.


## Result

Any attachment associated with a standard change proposal is copied to the standard change template that is created when the proposal is approved. When that template is used to create a standard change, any attachment associated with it is also copied to those standard change requests.
