Getting started

Getting started with Telden

Telden supports three equally valid ways to start an empty workspace. Pick the path that fits your files and workflow, then use the guided walkthrough below if you chose guided setup.

Operational tooling, not legal advice

Telden is an operational product-safety record tool. It helps you assemble, structure, and maintain compliance dossiers. Telden does not provide legal advice on whether your records satisfy specific regulatory requirements. Always involve a qualified compliance professional for final review.

Choose how to start

When your workspace is empty, Telden shows the same three start modes on the app home page. They appear here in the same order: upload everything, guided setup, then start from scratch.

Upload everything

Drop mixed CSVs, PDFs, certificates, risk assessments, or folder exports. Telden classifies each file and routes it to import, documents, or review.

Go to Upload

Guided setup

Work step by step when you prefer a deliberate setup instead of bulk intake.

Import catalog → add parties → upload documents → review issues

Start guided setup

Start from scratch

Create products and supporting records manually when you do not have files to upload yet.

Create your first product

Guided setup walkthrough

If you chose guided setup (or want a linear first-run checklist), follow these steps from workspace creation through export.

1

Create your workspace

Sign up at telden.eu and create a workspace. Your workspace is your team's private environment — all SKUs, documents, and settings live inside it. Early-access workspaces include demo data so you can explore the product immediately.

Workspace names can be changed later in Settings. Invite team members from the Settings > Team page once you are ready to collaborate.

2

Import your first product catalog

Head to the Import page and upload a spreadsheet (CSV, TSV, XLSX, or ODS). Telden reads your product codes, names, categories, and supplier information and creates structured SKU records. Each row becomes a tracked compliance subject.

Start with a small catalog — 10 to 50 products — so you can learn the workflow before scaling up. Telden handles large catalogs, but a small first import keeps the review step manageable.

3

Upload supplier documents

After importing, upload supplier evidence — declarations of conformity, test reports, risk analyses, and other compliance documents. Attach documents to individual SKUs or in bulk. Telden runs automatic classification and AI extraction on every uploaded document.

Name your files consistently (e.g., SKU-CODE_DoC_2026.pdf). This helps both your team and Telden's extraction pipeline identify document types more accurately.

4

Review AI suggestions

Once extraction completes, open any SKU to see the structured dossier Telden built from your documents. Extracted entity details (manufacturer, importer, responsible person), safety warnings, and field values are presented alongside source citations so you can verify every fact against the original PDF.

Green review-state means no blockers remain. Yellow means attention is needed. Red means mandatory fields or documents are missing — focus on those first.

5

Resolve blockers

The Review page lists every open warning, missing field, and conflict across your SKUs. Work through them systematically: accept AI-suggested values, manually fill missing fields, or mark issues as acknowledged if they do not apply to your use case.

Conflicts happen when two documents disagree about the same fact (e.g., different manufacturer addresses). Resolve them by choosing the authoritative source — Telden records the provenance.

6

Export and publish

When your SKU dossier is complete and approved, export it as a structured compliance record. Telden generates publication-ready outputs that you can submit to marketplaces, share with authorities, or archive for your own records. Published outputs are versioned so you can track what was current at any point in time.

Telden tracks publication history — when a newer export supersedes an older one, the previous version is preserved for audit trails.

You are ready to start

Create an early-access workspace, pick a start mode, and walk through your first product records. Upload-all is fastest for mixed files; guided setup suits spreadsheet-first teams; manual creation works when you have no files yet.
