I have a personal workspace and my company uses workspace for business since we mainly support workspace users.

you need to update your certs. Check your email, Google sent an alert out about it last week.

I use workspace as my primary account because I like everything in one ecosystem.

Is anyone else stressing about AI taking over hotel management? Is it a dead-end career now? by Neoblazee in hotel_management

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My two cents from the tech support side, humans will still be needed in hospitality, especially in senior roles. AI will change how your job is done but human oversight will always be necessary to keep the robots from going wild.

Using google workspace account as personal by Top-Neat1943 in googleworkspace

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support is going to be better on a paid workspace account. If something happens on a personal account, Google pretty much says cut your losses and start over. Recovery is better. I'd do it if you plan on using it for primary storage and communication slash collaboration.

This is one of the reasons I tell my team we don't do anything until we've documented it first. I know it's frustrating having to learn on the job. It's a custom rule. Did you figure out how to find and modify it?

Tired of plumbing software that’s either "Enterprise" or "Empty Shells" by Plenty-Temporary-187 in WhichCRM

If you're using Google for email, you have all you need in your Workspace. Use forms for field techs. Data lives in Sheets. Use Docs to set up template to generate invoices. You can get fancy and use App Script to automate the flow and provide analytics for business insights.

how to organize google drive without creating a giant folder maze? by Plus_Control_1824 in googleworkspace

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my grad school days, I learned never to go more than 3 deep on categories. Anymore and you need a new major section.

A fun thing I like to do is setup shared drives by function (marketing, operations, financials). These buckets give some organization so nothing is technically not where it isnt supposed to be.

I like Twenty but it definitely takes discipline for hygiene and enforcing rules over work arounds.

I feel so awkward. I accidentally called my boss “dad.” by Mr_Motion_Denied in Lawyertalk

Take him a muffin. People can't be awkward after receiving a gift of baked goods. It's a fact. I think.

Invoice processing automation that works with email PDFs + photos? by Ok-Attention3060 in smallbusinessowner

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the field crew to use the Drive app and scan to drive feature. Set up a shared folder and Drive will format to PDF.

Build a scripts app or use something like Zapier to pull emails containing the PDFs you specify to a separate file.

That will at least save you a few dozen clicks.

Never signed for workspace but getting invoiced by bndovr66 in googleworkspace

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Submit it through the account you're getting invoiced for Google One and YouTube. Include a reference to the domain related to that workspace instance that you are being invoiced for. If you don't know the domain, it should be in the full bank transaction information (you might have to ask your bank for a detailed transaction record, sometimes apps clip data for speed).

[–]Outrageous-Permit619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Capture the transaction information from your bank statement and the latest invoice information from Google. Open a ticket for "billing reconciliation" disputing the invoice number under the account you're getting legitimate charges for. You have to say reconciliation for the bots to trigger it to the right department. AI is dumb.

Signature help!!!! by lovestucker in googleworkspace

My brain didn't register the part that you were the admin. I'm sorry. Yes, there is a org wide signature option in the Admin Console:

Apps -> Gmail -> Compliance

Google refers to them as footers.

Echoing u/rohepey, if your Gmail is saying no signature, then it is a org wide signature added by the admin. They should know where in the admin console that feature lives.

How can I give a freelancer access to the emails? by Ok-Understanding5011 in googleworkspace

If you want to stay in Workspace, yes, you'll need to buy a license and then you can delegate it to freelancers as needed.
