Collaboration on a document

Sharing and collaborating on documents in the OneDrive repository is not a new feature. Still, Office 2021 has taken it to a significantly higher level. Collaboration on a document is available in most Office applications, and in this “recipe” we will focus on Excel: how to share a document, how to see what your peers are doing, and how Sheet View works – a view of a document in which you see your own changes.

PowerBI sharing

Power BI service, in accordance to trends, allows document sharing and collaborative work. There are multiple file sharing mechanisms, and most of them are only available to users of the Power BI Pro license, which is understandable because sharing involves working in a group, it makes no sense to share something with itself. In the following text I’ll mention address workspaces and further document sharing, how to generate QR code and monitor report statistics.

Inventory

Inventory is necessary but always dull (whatever kind of inventory you do). Since some time ago and I was a member of the Inventory Commission, this experience has served as an inspiration to write an article about a good way of using collaboration tools in Excel (Shared tables) to facilitate inventory process. This is also a good way to use Windows tablets that your company have bought. Most of the time they are only used for show off, and now they could have a real purpose.
