OneDrive Sharing vs. Staff Leaving?

[Gongalong]

Hi All,

 

The difficulty we're facing with using OneDrive to replace network drives is that if a staff member becomes a repository for files, if they leave then it's a faff to download it all, reupload it, and reshare it.

 

Is there anything equivalent to a OneDrive that's not user account specific, or is the answer to create a dummy account and share from that?

 

Thanks

You need to setup a SharePoint team site. It gives you he same features as Onedrive but you can grant access for a group of users. The easiest way now is to create a Microsoft Team which will create a SharePoint team site.

Yeah, this a process/training issue. We tell all staff that sharing from OneDrive is only for a quick check or collaboration on a document. Once the document is ready to be used or made live then it goes to Sharepoint.

 

For groups that work together a lot, we set up Teams.
