File Storage and Business Central
In Business Central, we currently either use DocXtender to attach files or use Incoming Document Files. We are looking for a better way to organize attached documents (and other documents) using a file store rather than attaching them directly in the database. The OneDrive functionality looks to me like it connects to individual user OneDrives. It looks like the Sharepoint Connector has an additional cost. I’m wondering if it is possible to use Teams in some way.
How do other people accomplish this?

Hi Krista,
Here are some links to research, but what I’m reading is that you must setup shared drives on onedrive first and then grant users access to the shares and they’d be able to select OTHER destinations than their personal.
Here are two links:

You can use OneDrive for Business to store, manage, and share files, such as reports or file attachments. Also if you spell it One Drive.

@kristafoster – Teams is not a tool for storage of documents, like DocXtender or SharePoint. DocXtender can use SharePoint and allow you to build a schema for storing documents. You might think about using the SharePoint Connector APP (SharePoint Connector – EFOQUS). I have used both. Each offers its own solution for what you need. I know DocXtender is free but the SharePoint Connector has a cost of around $2400/per year. It offers more functionality between BC and SharePoint. Consider looking at this to solve your requirements for short dollars.
Thanks,
Steve
