00:00:03,940 --> 00:00:05,440
[Autogenerated] Hi. This lesson I'm gonna

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,520
show you how to enable the creation of

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,970
minor or draft versions of documents in a

4
00:00:10,970 --> 00:00:14,080
document library. We're here on our HR

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,000
team site and we're going to go to our

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,560
employee handbook document library. Now,

7
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:22,820
this document library, like every document

8
00:00:22,820 --> 00:00:24,910
library in SharePoint, has version ing

9
00:00:24,910 --> 00:00:27,790
enabled. And what that means is that every

10
00:00:27,790 --> 00:00:30,650
time you edit a document, SharePoint

11
00:00:30,650 --> 00:00:33,920
creates a new major version of that

12
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:36,820
document, and all of the previous versions

13
00:00:36,820 --> 00:00:41,040
of the document are also saved. Now, what

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,850
we want to do is enable the creation off

15
00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:47,290
minor or draft versions of the documents.

16
00:00:47,290 --> 00:00:51,560
We will also be able to then publish major

17
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,670
versions when we're ready. Let's go ahead

18
00:00:54,670 --> 00:00:58,000
and let's go to the settings gear here and

19
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,700
click on library settings. Now it's worth

20
00:01:01,700 --> 00:01:04,890
it to note that you don't have to be the

21
00:01:04,890 --> 00:01:07,660
SharePoint site owner to enable these

22
00:01:07,660 --> 00:01:09,940
version ing settings in the library. We

23
00:01:09,940 --> 00:01:11,580
come here to the employee handbook

24
00:01:11,580 --> 00:01:13,840
settings and we see here under general

25
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,280
settings, version ING settings were gonna

26
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,630
click there, and this is where we're gonna

27
00:01:19,630 --> 00:01:21,460
find what we're looking for. Let's scroll

28
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:25,160
down a little bit and under document

29
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,660
version history. We come over here to the

30
00:01:27,660 --> 00:01:30,120
right and we see that what is checked is

31
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,830
creating major versions and you'll see it

32
00:01:32,830 --> 00:01:35,490
is create a version each time you edit a

33
00:01:35,490 --> 00:01:38,440
file in this document and by default. Like

34
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,730
I said, it is major versions, and you can

35
00:01:40,730 --> 00:01:43,680
see the example. 123 and four. We're gonna

36
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,270
select this radio button the creating

37
00:01:46,270 --> 00:01:49,720
major and minor or draft versions. For

38
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,570
example, 11.11 point 22 point. Oh, like

39
00:01:54,570 --> 00:01:57,910
that. Now, once we do that, let's go down

40
00:01:57,910 --> 00:02:00,150
here and take a look at a couple of other

41
00:02:00,150 --> 00:02:02,820
options that we have now we have the

42
00:02:02,820 --> 00:02:05,400
ability to limit the number of versions to

43
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,340
retain major versions is set at 500 by

44
00:02:09,340 --> 00:02:11,640
default. That's a lot. But we're gonna

45
00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:14,290
leave it like that. We also now have the

46
00:02:14,290 --> 00:02:16,930
ability to determine how many draft

47
00:02:16,930 --> 00:02:19,380
versions we want to keep. I'm gonna make

48
00:02:19,380 --> 00:02:21,100
this a little bit smaller. I'm gonna just

49
00:02:21,100 --> 00:02:25,620
say 300. Okay? Now, I also want us to come

50
00:02:25,620 --> 00:02:29,550
down here to draft items security. You see

51
00:02:29,550 --> 00:02:32,290
that? Says who should see draft items in

52
00:02:32,290 --> 00:02:34,770
this document library Any user who can

53
00:02:34,770 --> 00:02:40,000
read them or only users who can edit them.

54
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,420
We have 1/3 item for approval, but we're

55
00:02:42,420 --> 00:02:45,380
not doing content approval in this lesson.

56
00:02:45,380 --> 00:02:48,050
By default, any user can read the drafts

57
00:02:48,050 --> 00:02:49,640
if we want to change it. And that's what

58
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:51,990
we are going to do to only users who can

59
00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:54,710
edit items. So only people who have edit

60
00:02:54,710 --> 00:02:56,610
permissions in this library will be able

61
00:02:56,610 --> 00:02:59,000
to see the draft versions. Visitors.

62
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,140
People who can only read the documents

63
00:03:01,140 --> 00:03:03,770
will not be able to see the drafts on Lee

64
00:03:03,770 --> 00:03:06,840
the major published versions. All right,

65
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,390
let's go ahead and click. Okay, let's go

66
00:03:11,390 --> 00:03:15,070
back to our library and let's take a look

67
00:03:15,070 --> 00:03:17,300
at one of these documents. Let's do this.

68
00:03:17,300 --> 00:03:20,350
When computers and technology, I'm gonna

69
00:03:20,350 --> 00:03:24,640
go ahead and click on the show actions

70
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:28,970
_______ and go to version history. Now we

71
00:03:28,970 --> 00:03:31,980
can see that we have two major versions of

72
00:03:31,980 --> 00:03:34,090
this document version one inversion to,

73
00:03:34,090 --> 00:03:36,460
and those will remain. Even if we go ahead

74
00:03:36,460 --> 00:03:39,610
and start creating Maur draft versions,

75
00:03:39,610 --> 00:03:42,160
these two will still be here. So let's go

76
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,820
ahead and let's close this and let's open

77
00:03:44,820 --> 00:03:48,590
up this document and create a new draft

78
00:03:48,590 --> 00:03:53,160
version. It opened up here inward online.

79
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,230
And let's take it, Let's do something

80
00:03:58,230 --> 00:04:05,870
here. Let's change the company to the name

81
00:04:05,870 --> 00:04:12,140
of the company elevator where skills

82
00:04:12,140 --> 00:04:17,010
information technology systems. Okay, just

83
00:04:17,010 --> 00:04:18,770
a minor change. But that's okay. We're

84
00:04:18,770 --> 00:04:21,440
only creating draft version. I'm gonna

85
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,180
close this up. We're gonna come back to

86
00:04:24,180 --> 00:04:26,620
our document library. Let's go to show

87
00:04:26,620 --> 00:04:30,700
actions inversion history again. And I

88
00:04:30,700 --> 00:04:34,630
will see that we have version 2.1, the

89
00:04:34,630 --> 00:04:36,760
draft version created by Gary Coulson.

90
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,510
Because that's who I'm signed in as, and

91
00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:44,060
we could view it or restored if we wanted

92
00:04:44,060 --> 00:04:47,720
to, just like we could with any major

93
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:52,600
version. So now you know how to enable the

94
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,190
creation of minor or draft versions of

95
00:04:56,190 --> 00:05:07,000
documents in a document library. Thanks for listening. And I'll see you next time
