Questions, answered

Straightforward answers for visitors evaluating the product.

What can a school store in the file drive?+

Teams can organise documents, images, archives, policies, templates, and class materials in a shared folder hierarchy.

Pilot one record through application, review, decision, and handoff so the public status and staff queue remain aligned. Include an incomplete-document or declined-offer case before opening the workflow to every intake.

How are sensitive folders protected?+

Role-gated folder access limits who can view school files, and the audit view records access to sensitive folders for review.

Record the responsible administrator and verify the control in the target deployment before production data is loaded. Keep the evidence with the school’s procurement or access-review record.

Can teams download a folder as one package?+

Zip download supports bulk export when a school needs to hand off or archive multiple files together.

Test the answer with a representative record and role before making it part of a live term workflow. Capture the expected result and the exception path so the team can verify it after launch.

Can staff send files into a shared folder?+

Incoming shares let staff submit documents to the appropriate school folder without relying on personal cloud storage or email attachments.
