Your
company uses Microsoft SharePoint Online for collaboration. A document
library is configured as shown in the following table.
1. Require content approval for submitted items? √
2. Create a version each time you edit a file in this document library? -Create major versions
3. Who should see draft items in this document library? -Only users who can edit items
4. Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? √
You need to enable the coauthoring of documents in the library.
What should you do?
□ Change the Who should see draft items in this document library? setting to Any user who can read items.
□ Change the Create a version each time you edit a file in this document library?
setting to No Versioning.
□ Change the Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? setting to No.
□ Change the Require content approval for submitted items? setting to No.
To enable coauthoring of documents in the document library in Microsoft SharePoint Online, you need to change the setting that requires documents to be checked out before they can be edited. Coauthoring does not work when document checkout is required because it prevents multiple users from editing the document simultaneously.
Therefore, you should:
□ Change the Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? setting to No.
By making this change, you allow multiple users to collaborate on documents at the same time without the need for them to check out the documents first.
