MicrosoftUpdate: Document Sets in Modern Document Libraries
I am pleased to announce some updates on the plan and timeline for improving the Document Set experience in modern document libraries.
In January, we communicated a March delivery date for thes...
LincolnDeMaris , Shared Columns does not synchronize when copying or moving files into a Document Sets. Is this normal?
Also adding the document sets name at the beginning of each file names does not work....
Can we get some feedback to know if modern document sets will be abandoned because this can't be used in production as it is right now.
Thanks.
LincolnDeMaris What's the go with folders inside document sets not inheriting changed metadata from the set? The files inside the document inherit properly but not the folders?
Is anyone else having this issue and is there a workaround for now? I contemplated running a flow overnight to repopulate all my metadata but I have a "last modified by" requirement and this would stuff that up.
- Folders do not have custom metadata so nothing to inherit... unless you added custom metadata to your folder content type (not recommended). Items will inherit the metadata across (sub-)folders as you have seen, so no problem there. One unformtunate exception: enterprise keywords, if used. Note: you cannot use document sets within documents sets.
