Documents

Edit and sync files

If you have appropriate permissions, you can open files in the the Documents area and then edit them locally and sync your changes using Onvio Link.

Edit files

In the Documents area, select the file that you want to edit and click
Open
 in the toolbar.
  • If you're not already logged in to Onvio Link, you can start the application by clicking the Start button in the Windows taskbar and choosing All Programs > Onvio Link. Log in with your Onvio Client Centre credentials.
  • All files that you currently have open in the Documents area are listed in the Onvio Link screen.
  • Click a filename in the Name column to open a local copy of the corresponding file.
  • Click the folder name in the Name column to open the folder in the Documents area that contains the original file.
  • You can also download a file, edit it locally, and then manually upload the updated file.
  • When you upload an updated file, you have the option to replace the original file in the Documents area or to keep both files. If you keep both files, the name of the most recently uploaded file is appended with a "(1)". Any additional files that you upload with the same name are appended sequentially.

Sync files

When you're done editing, save the file and sync your updated local file with the original version in Onvio Documents.
If another Onvio Link user simultaneously edits a file that you've also edited locally through Onvio Link, it's possible that your changes will be overwritten when you sync the file. Therefore, we recommend that you coordinate the local editing of Onvio documents with other users who may update the same files.
  • Local versions of a open document from Onvio Link need to be closed prior to performing a sync to Onvio.
  • Click
    Sync to Onvio
     to sync your changes with the original file in the Documents area.
  • Click
    Sync and Close
     to sync your changes and close the original file in the Documents area.
  • Click
    Close
    to close the original file in the Documents area without saving any local changes.
