Work with Workspaces
Users with the Power User or Admin license type can create workspaces and manage the users, files, data queries, filters, and workflows in the workspaces on the Disclosure Management website.
A workspace is the central hub for:
- Word reports
- Linked Excel and PowerPoint documents
- Data queries and filters
- Workflows
Note: Users with the Power User license can only manage the workspaces they own. Admin users can manage all workspaces of the organization.
