visibility re who is in what files across any number of files in one folder without having to open

[wayne TFP]

how can we set up visibility so a manager could see who was in what file across number of different files in one folder without having to click into each file as this is very time consuming 

thanks in anticaption

Hi @wayne TFP, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Are you on a Dropbox Business team or a personal account? 

Are these files in shared folders or team folders?

This will help me to assist further!

hiya 

thanks for swift reply, to answer questions 

• we are on business.

• the plan is that they are in team folders ( ie not shared outside of organisation) assuming I have understood what you are asking re team or shared folders 

In essence we want a folder, say called In progress which could have say 50 files in it, which members of team would all have access to and be working on the mangers and possibly other team members want to be able easily see who, is in what, at any point in time  without having to open every file to be able to see this.

hope this makes sense

Thanks for the info. Currently, this wouldn't be possible to do what you're asking using Dropbox. 

The viewer info would only show when a person has accessed a file, while you're viewing the file yourself.
