# Uploading Documents & Creating Groups

## Once a document is mapped and saved as a .dot template, upload it to TMO. Then you can bundle documents into groups to print them together.

### **Upload a new document**

Use this for your own documents **and** for TMO documents you’ve edited.

1. Go to **System Administration \> Document Maintenance** and pick your product tab.
2. Click **Actions** (lightning bolt) \> **New Blank Document**.
   
   ![](https://help.themortgageoffice.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Sep-28-2026-09-10-51-4399-PM.png?width=670&height=163&name=image-png-Sep-28-2026-09-10-51-4399-PM.png)
3. Check **Active**.
4. Click **Browse**, select your .dot file and click **Open**.
5. Type a **Description**. This is the name users see
6. Choose a **Show Dialog** option (see below).
7. Click **Save**.

| **Show Dialog** | **What you get** |
| --- | --- |
| **None** | One copy (most documents) |
| **Borrowers** | A separate copy for each borrower |
| **Lenders** | A separate copy for each lender |
| **Properties** | A separate copy for each property |
| **Encumbrances** | A separate copy for each encumbrance |
| **URLAs** | A separate copy for each application |
| **Escrow Voucher Assistant** | A separate copy for each escrow voucher |

**Important:** Don’t change the **Template Name** field. TMO may stop recognizing the document. Rename with **Description** only.

### **TMO documents vs. your own**

|  | **Edited TMO document** | **Your own document** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| How to upload | Always as a **New Blank Document** | **New Blank Document** |
| Replace the original? | **Never.** TMO updates can overwrite it and erase your changes | Yes. See “Replace a document” below |
| Name it | Something different from the original, like “Promissory Note – Custom” | Anything clear |

### Replace a document you uploaded

1. In Document Maintenance, double-click your document.
2. Click **Browse** and select the updated .dot file from your computer's file explorer.
3. Click **Save**.

### Create a document group

Groups can include TMO documents, your own documents, or both.

1. In Document Maintenance, pick your product tab.
2. Click **Actions \> New Document Group**.
3. Enter a **Description** with the word “Group,” like “Closing Group.”
4. Select a document on the left and click the **arrows** to select or deselect the document in the group. Repeat for each document.
5. Click **Save**.

**Tip:** If a group prints in the wrong order, fix the order in the main Document Maintenance list with the up and down arrows.
