A few general comments:
I would strongly advise minimizing the use of screen captures. Keeping screen caps up to date is time consuming, keeping things up to date for third party applications that change without notice is especially challenging. Step-by-step procedures can also be problematic, but in this case there's not much way around it.
Stick to present tense instead of future tense. Just tell the reader what to do, not what they will need to do. :-)
In general, we follow the Google UX writing guidelines for talking about UI elements: https://developers.google.com/style/ui-elements.

Instead of using headings for the images, I'd turn these into numbered steps. The description of the step should follow the step text, rather than precede it:
. Create a Dossier.
. Click New Data in the DATASETS column to import data into the dossier. This opens a dialog where you can select a data source.
. Click the _Databases_icon to select the data source.
And so on...
