Once you start using Microsoft OneNote and get used to these useful features, you can start sharing notebooks. This is a great way to advance team projects and tasks.

However, like any other project you share, you may want to see any changes, including who made it and when.

Moreover, OneNote offers a useful feature to help you and your team keep up. You can view edits made to a notebook by timeframe.
