Save a copy of meeting documents or any file

You can access all documents for meetings from the relevant shared area but, if you want to make any notes on the documents please save your own copy first so that the master copy remains clean. 

Because of the rules placed on the REF Hub you can't use the Create a Copy function so we suggest using this method to create your own copy.
