Documents are sent via email, often resulting in old document versions being used 2 employees in Germany travel 75% of the time Not always up to date on product information, promotions, and other things Unsure if they have latest versions of documents Documents on file share are quite unorganised Where can I find a file? Do I organise order documents by year, by ordered model, by design?
