SharePoint Major and Minor Versions - What you need to know

SharePoint Major and Minor versions can be instrumental to your document management framework and business processes.

There are some tings that you need to understand and what the impact is when you enable this feature on Document Libraries.

In this video we take a look at why people cannot see what you may be able to see.

Hi Daniel. Great work - unsurprisingly!
Worth mentioning how to enable the "Version" column in the SharePoint library too.
Took me a little time to figure that one out mate!
Thanks for your hard work, it's invaluable.
Congrats on your renewed MVP status too btw!
Best, Sedleigh

Do you know if it's possible to show the status in a colums (Draft or Published)? Is ther somethiong out of the box. Could not find any columns

Another great tutorial. I plan to use this to blow people’s minds with document management and save £££’s on potential external apps. Thanks again.

Is it possible to make a view that shows latest published version to people with edit rights?

how can i manage the visability for people who can apporve files? I mean how do I manage who can Approve files?
I can't figure out how I can start an automate worklfow to the definied approvel team

does the sharepoint search feature hide documents that are in draft mode and on a minor version? Im hoping it does. Would be kind of odd behavior, if the search engine/sharepoint search showed everyone ALL documents when we know they are not published yet (Publish by a user to get a Major version)

Microsoft Teams takes up quiet a bit of memory it seems in meetings, this causes my computer to slow down when many people have their video on.

Is there a way to *simulate* having 10 people’s video playing in a meeting - taking up my bandwidth? That way I could test my computers limit and then automate sending a message in the meetings chat to request videos are turned off if (x) amount of attendees have accepted the meeting invite.

Also, please consider a video on how someone could run Teams on Azure virtual machine. Thank you 🙏🏽.
