Share folders

When you or other staff members share a folder in the Documents area with specific clients, those clients will be able to view and download the files in those folders from within Onvio Client Centre.

Note: In Onvio Client Centre, Clients will see only individual files from the folders you share.

Mark the checkbox for the folder that you want to share in the Client Documents tab and choose Manage > Share Folder.

In the Share Folder panel, you can select contacts who are associated with the current client and who have access to Onvio and assign folder sharing roles. Assigned roles will determine the actions that contacts can take on the files within the folder.

For details on permissions for folder-sharing roles in the Documents area, see Folder sharing roles in Onvio.

Update contact information to enable sharing

If you select a contact who doesn't meet the criteria for folder sharing, the Enable Sharing panel opens, allowing you to define the contact relationship and/or enable Client Centre access for the selected contact.

If the Enable Sharing panel opens, follow these steps.

  1. If the Client Centre Access buttons are visible, click the On button to enable access to Client Centre.
  2. Complete all other fields as needed. Onvio prompts you for all required information.
  3. Click Save to enable sharing for the updated contact.
