To enable collaboration in a shared model, all project members must share and receive changes regularly. This ensures that your local project is up to date with the shared model.
To share changes and receive updates, use Receive and Share on the Home tab. It is important to share often because the local workset is not backed up on your local computer.
Use Share to share and update the shared model with the changes from you workset.
