Microsoft Sharepoint is a web-based portal software product from Microsoft. It is mainly used to create collaborative sites for collaboration between users and groups.
These collaborative sites can be used to store, manage, and share information as well as documents and media. Sharepoint can be configured with different portals such as intranet, extranet, web-only, and team sites.
This allows users to access the information from different locations within the organization. Users can also have a single account that will have access to all of the sites within Sharepoint.
Users can create documents or use the tools that are available in Sharepoint for document creation such as Excel or Word.
Microsoft Office 365 is a cloud-based version of Microsoft Sharepoint Online.

One of the most common errors is Microsoft Sharepoint “we couldn’t register this Document” , which this error occurred due to when users do not have rights on that particular file they cannot upload it into Sharepoint or view it in Word.
When a user tried to upload a new version of the same file into Sharepoint it would overwrite the old version.
So users must remember not to upload the same files more than once as there will be some conflicts between them and Microsoft Sharepoint will not let users upload more than one version of the same file.
To fix this error, you need to try a few solutions.
First what you do to solve this problem, we have to open a Sharepoint site and then upload the document from Word into Sharepoint.
The document should be uploaded in a specific folder which has an ID name and must be unique.
The other solution is to install Office 2010 and then you can see that document without problems. The document will appear in the users’ libraries as usual and will be able to edit it without any problems.
