The Co-edit with your team settings have moved. This allows practices to get up and running with Co-editing documents internally first, and follow with Co-editing documents with clients once you're ready. There is no change to the functionality of the Collaborate features.

When configuring or editing 'Co-edit with your team' settings, the following settings have moved from the Collaborate app to the OneDrive app in the Automations workspace. This is applicable for practices maintaining Co-edit settings and for practices getting started with Co-edit.

  • When using bulk update to edit job due dates in quick succession, the updates synchronise to XPM.
