A vehicle's file has two separate dates.
The "Download date" shows when its data was actually taken from the vehicle's tachograph—the moment someone downloaded it using tachograph download equipment. The "Upload date" shows when that same file was added to Tachogram.
These two dates can be far apart: a file might be downloaded from the vehicle on one day, then only added to Tachogram some time later.

What each date shows
By regulation, a vehicle's tachograph data must be downloaded at least once every 90 days.
The "Download date" is what actually shows whether that happened on time.
The "Upload date" only tells you when the file reached Tachogram.
Check the "Download date" instead if you need to know whether the vehicle's data was downloaded on time, since a file can be uploaded well after it was downloaded from the vehicle.
What else the Files section shows
The Files section also shows:
Column | What it shows |
Filename | The tachograph file's own name |
File size | How large the file is |
Source | How the file reached Tachogram—for example uploaded on the web, sent by FTP, or added automatically through an integration |
Actions | An option to download the original file to your computer |
These details help you find a specific file quickly, or check how it reached Tachogram.
