    I have an on premise 2011 with update 2 installed.

     

    When I enable document management in an entity and then add a document location, there does not appear to be a way to share the new location from the form.  I see the ribbon below of which neither option allows me to do much more than add\update a label and a link.

     

    When I go to the document management entity I see a different ribbon where I can share out an entry and do much more.  Am I missing something or is there a gap in functionality?

    Hi Scott, most CRM form ribbons provide a feature which allows you to Share the record, E-mail a Link or Copy a Link. But the Document Location is not a CRM record so these actions are not available.

    I am not sure I get that.  All I would be modifying is a record in CRM that point to a file or sharepoint site.  All I want to do is expose that link to other users.  If they do not have the rights to access the content it's linked to then they don't get access.

     

    If I can share the location record from within the document management entity, it does not make sense I could not do it from with in locations linked to entites from within system.  So I can share the location object, I just have to go through more hoops to get there.
