New documents

Cascade

Rename the document using the following convention:

For Forms: cnu-form-file_name.pdf
For Policies: cnu-policy-0000_policy_name.pdf and replace the 0000 with the policy number
Other: cnu-file_name.pdf

After the file is renamed, it can be uploaded to Cascade.
Note: if you are just updating the file, it does not need to be renamed since Cascade will not overwrite file names within its system.
