Personal Site, used to store private documents.
Student Recruitment

All Cardiff Met staff also have an Office 365 account. So you now have two accounts:
Your normal Cardiff Met account.  Continue to use this account to log-on to computers and access other services such as or SharePoint. Usernames for this account are usually of the form SM12345
An Office 365 account.  This account is used primarily used to access your OneDrive documents through the web, and to access other O365 services (next slide).

Full Control: full admin rights – use with caution. (Typically Team Site Administrators)

Quick summary

18. Recycle Bin & Backup
Files deleted from a document library move to the Recycle Bin for that team site.
Files reside here for 6 months before being permanently deleted.
Backups are created nightly and are kept for 6 months.

19. 4. Sharing with OneDrive for Business

20. Sharing with OneDrive Three scenarios: Sharing externally Large files
Occasional ad hoc sharing
e.g. exam board
E.g. video assessments for the exam board
E.g. sharing a completed SPR form. BUT even in this case SharePoint might be a better fit, as can store them all together and don’t have issues if staff member leaves.

21. 5. Document Collaboration Tools

22. Version History Versioning creates multiple versions of the same file.
A version of a file is created every time the file is saved and closed.
Version history allows you to view and restore previous versions of a file.
Versioning has to be enabled on the document library for it to work. Contact your team site administrator if version history is unavailable.
Example 1: a colleague makes changes to a report and wish to compare them.
E.g. connecting to a printer.docx in
Example 2: You have made changes to a document and you wish to revert them.

23. Co-authoring
The ability for multiple users to edit Word or PowerPoint files, simultaneously .
SharePoint locks out parts of the document that are being edited.

24. Check Out Check Out locks a file so that only you can access it.
Useful if you intend to modify a file and need to prevent others from doing so.
Use judiciously. Don’t forget!
DO an example.

25. Alerts Alert you to changes made to documents or entire libraries.
Cause of alert can be specified
Frequency of alert can also be set.
Alerts are sent to Cardiff Met address.
DO an example.
E.g. an alert to review whose changed training material in a training document library.
Or an alert to notify when new minutes are uploaded.

26. Properties Document properties can be set via Edit Properties
Benefits:
Improve search results
Gives details of document’s purpose and status
Filter, group, sort
Your team site administrator is responsible for setting up document properties.
Meta data - much more useful for publishing purposes.
Filter, group, sort – Efficient Admin session covers this

27. Send To Download a copy – useful for offline editing.
a link – opens an with a link to the document. No need to attachments!
DO an example for send to.
