Edit Office Documents Online

With this feature, MS Office documents (Word, Excel and PowerPoint) can be edited directly from a Poolarserver workspace. Editing can be carried out by only one person with write access, but not simultaneously with other people. The file is opened automatically in the local application (e.g. Word or Excel) and is shown with a lock in the Poolarserver display during editing and therefore marked as blocked for other project participants.

After closing the local application, the file is uploaded automatically and with a new index to the Poolarserver and is then available to the project participants again.

This extension to our plan and file storage structure is available for green folders – a specific type of folder that is similar in function to Windows Explorer folders, i.e. the subfolder structure can be generated and extended as required by right-clicking.
