FAQ
Questions teams ask before buying
Straight answers for setup, integrations, and day-two operations.
Do files leave Google Drive?
Typically no — ScholarERP stores references and opens Drive with Google permissions.
Can we force per-student copies?
Yes for assignment templates where configured.
Is Google Workspace required?
Yes for Docs/Drive connectors.
Does this replace Learning Resources?
No — Learning Resources can hold many file types; Docs Connector deep-links Google-native files.
