Need to get customer to use latest version of a document.
Use versioning with Word.
To use versioning in Word, you need to store your documents in either OneDrive or in a SharePoint Library.
When documents are stored online, you can turn on AutoSave to automatically save as your work. You can also share documents by inviting someone to the library, or providing a link rather than sending a discrete copy of the document. Lastly, you can work with others to co-author a document at the same time.
For more information on saving to OneDrive or SharePoint, coauthoring, or using AutoSave, see:

- stevegroomSROJun 23, 2021Copper ContributorThank you for the reply, I know how to version a file I am working on, but need something else - I am sorry I was not completely clear - the customer insists on downloading documents and then complains that when they are out of date. Is there any way that a downloaded document can check to see if it has been superseded ? (Or at least force a re-download periodically)?
