You can upload a file or folder in My Documents section, as well as in the Shared and Common folders sections, provided that the user has editing permissions. If you perform the operation in the Flagged, Recent or Trash folders, the document to be created will be added to My Documents section.
MyOffice software administrator can restrict a group of users from uploading certain types of files. If you try to upload a prohibited file type, an error will appear in the download window.
By default, the size of the uploaded file should not exceed 5 GB. If the limit is exceeded, an error message will be displayed on the screen when the file is uploaded. This option can be changed by the administrator of MyOffice software.
You cannot load an empty folder into MyOffice Documents.
To upload a file or folder to MyOffice Documents from an external source, follow the procedure below.

•Click Add on the Navigation bar.
•Click with the right mouse button on an empty space on the workspace.
•Click Upload in the workspace.
2.In the opened menu, select the Upload File or Upload Folder command.

The bottom right corner of the screen will display a window with the list of uploaded items and the progress of the upload for each object is displayed.

When uploading a folder containing sub-folders, you can cancel the uploading process of the sub-folders and the top‑level folder. In this case, all folders will still be created and will contain files uploaded before you cancel the uploading operation.
If an item with the same name already exists in the folder where the item is being uploaded, the file/folder will be uploaded with a new name (assigned automatically by adding a numeric index to the name, for example: New file (2).
If the uploading of items has been paused for a long time (the allowed pause time is configured by the system administrator), two minutes before the event, a window will be displayed warning that the upload will be canceled. The user can resume or cancel the upload from the warning window. If the action was not selected, the loading operation will be interrupted, and a window will be displayed with information about canceling the operation.
If uploading is paused without user participation (in case of a disconnection from the server), uploading will resume automatically from the place where it was paused after the connection is restored.

A file opened in the editor cannot be replaced. When replacing it, the corresponding error will be displayed. To apply the selected action to all copied elements with matching names, select the check box Apply to all in the dialog box. The Replace command can only be applied to files. |
