\"Summary<\/p>\n

Add Content Quickly<\/h4>\n

You can easily create new<\/strong> documents within OneDrive for Business and upload<\/strong> existing files. Adjust your windows and you can drag and drop files directly in. Over 300 file types are supported!<\/p>\n

\"OneDrive<\/p>\n

Make Instant Changes<\/h4>\n

To make small and quick document changes, click on the file to open in the Browser<\/strong> version of the application (rather than the full desktop version of Word or Excel). This is great for small edits, where changes are automatically saved. Simply close the browser tab \u2013 no saves required!<\/p>\n

Keep Track of Previous Edits<\/h4>\n

Any time you edit a document you create a version automatically. If you right-click a document you\u2019ll see Version History<\/strong>. Here you can open any previous version in read-only. Take the opportunity to manage your files effectivity by using versions. This reduces duplication of files.<\/p>\n

Work Completely Online<\/h4>\n

Remember that you can access your OneDrive for Business via your PC, tablet or mobile device as data is stored in the cloud \u2013 simply download the relevant app from your app store.<\/p>\n

Work Offline<\/h4>\n

Notice the Sync<\/strong> button in OneDrive for Business? You can synchronise files down to your computer and work offline \u2013 changes made offline are automatically synced when you connect again, so you can be sure you\u2019re always working on the most up to date copy.<\/p>\n

\"OneDrive<\/p>\n

Share Files and Collaborate Easily<\/h4>\n

Right-click a file you can select to Share<\/strong> with colleagues within your organisation, or even with external stakeholders (depending upon your Company settings). You can add more personalised settings by choosing whether the user can View<\/strong> or Edit<\/strong>, and you can even set expiry dates.<\/p>\n

Move Documents in Seconds<\/h4>\n

Do you have a document in your OneDrive for Business that should be in your Company SharePoint Site? If that\u2019s the case, right-click the file and select the Move<\/strong> option. There will be a list of locations you can move the file to and you can move up to 500MB of files using this method.<\/p>\n

Find those Pesky Lost Documents<\/h4>\n

Need to find a document quickly? OneDrive for Business can do that! It will not only search for files in your OneDrive for Business, but also documents that someone has shared with you and documents on a SharePoint site that you follow.<\/p>\n

Head for the Search box at the top and enter in your search term. For an exact phrase where 2 or more words are together, type using the quotes e.g. \u201cTraining Review<\/em>\u201d. To exclude a word from the search results, use the minus sign e.g. Training -Review<\/em>. This shows results with the word Training<\/em> but excludes the word Review<\/em>.<\/p>\n
