Hello! I am needing assistance to figure out the best way to complete this process.
I will explain what we are currently doing and if there is a better way please let me know.
I have a team of people that create documents and upload them to my OneDrive which I have shared with all of them.
The remainder of the Team will go in and edit those documents.
Once complete I will use the move command to move those documents to our Sharepoint Online site. (We are not having them upload directly to Sharepoint as I have to review each document)
I have created identical columns in OneDrive and Sharepoint. The issue we are having is that the metadata is not being moved over. I have searched to try and find a way to copy the Library from Sharepoint as a template and upload it to OneDrive but cannot find any way to do that.
Is there a better way to accomplish the above? Please note I am fairly new to Sharepoint and OneDrive so any help would be appreciated! Thank you

When you say "Teams" are you speaking of like a Team Room? Sorry new to all this.

You could also do this all from the SharePoint document library. Go to library settings and go to versioning. You want the following:
Require content approval for submitted item? "YES"
Create a version each time you edit a file in the document library? "Create major and minor (draft) versions Example: 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0"
Limit the numbers as you see fit in the next two boxes (or don't)
Who should see draft items in the document library? "Only users who can edit items"
From there, have a security group with all of your people in it and give that group "Edit" rights to the library.
Create another security group with you in it that has "Approve" rights.
This works well with Microsoft Teams as Chris has been explaining, but it works entirely within the SharePoint framework so you don't have issues regarding Metatags (columns), and if you have to move an item to another library, as long as the Metatags are the same, it transfers without issue.
Good luck...I just saw this looking for info on a different issue so I know it has been awhile since you first posted this question.
