When working with more than one person on files, there may be situations where there are conflicts during the synchronization. For example if two persons are working on the same file, the last one who saves the file also wins during the synchronization which is triggered as soon as the file is being saved.

handling

In the case of a file conflict the client keeps the newest file version (by last modification date) at the original place (e.g. BalanceSheet.xls).
