Buying a business plan settles one question: which plan the organization pays for. It does not show which account is active, what happens to the material the team enters, or whether the proposed task has been approved.
This reference is a configuration checklist. It does not review or recommend any product.

Verify the workspace the user is actually in
A provider's plan description may mention admin controls, single sign-on, and how the provider uses customer data. Those statements do not establish that a task is suitable or that information is privileged. They also do not describe every connected service.
Confirm that the user is inside the intended business workspace rather than a personal account. Then ask the administrator how identity is managed:
- whether sign-in runs through the organization's identity provider;
- whether multi-factor authentication is enforced for the workspace or left to each user;
- how a departing user loses access; and
- which audit logs and retention controls the current plan includes.
Controls can differ between plan tiers. Confirm them for the plan the organization holds.
Describe the task before uploading material
Write down the proposed input, output, reviewer, and destination. Identify information that must remain out of the workflow.
For an initial test, draft an internal meeting agenda from approved, non-sensitive notes. A named person reviews the result before it leaves the draft.
Do not upload matter-specific confidential material before the team has checked the workspace, contract, settings, permissions, and applicable professional duties. A vendor statement about data use does not answer those questions.
Ask about retention
Do not infer one blanket retention period. Retention can vary by plan, admin setting, feature, and type of data. Connected apps can follow their own rules, so treat each connection as a separate decision.
Record the answer for the prompts, uploaded files, and outputs of the proposed task. If the administrator cannot give one, treat that as a finding before the first test.
The account question comes first
Most of this reference is about accounts, identity, and retention rather than about what the model can do. That order is deliberate. A strong result from the wrong workspace is a result the team cannot keep. A weak result from the right one is at least a finding.
So the first test is small and checkable. Draft an internal agenda from approved notes, in the confirmed business workspace, with connected apps limited to what the task needs. Name a reviewer who can compare the output with the notes. Save the prompt purpose, source list, output, corrections, and date.
If the account, the sources, or the reviewer's ability to check cannot be confirmed, keep the work manual. A new subscription does not decide whether the task is ready. The confirmed account, sources, and reviewer do. When they are confirmed, the team may want the workflow configured rather than improvised.
