Hello,
we would like to start using the OneDrive instead of the company network. Is it possible to set universal paths to OneDrive (I mean for A-Z Folders, Export Path, Letter)? Problem is that I use OD on three computers and the path to OneDrive is different (C:\users\dentistname\onedrive)? I have 3 paths from OneDrive to folders as a URL only. Is it possible to set the URL“s to OD?
Thank you for your help.

Maybe you could go to each computer and make a symbolic link from a folder path that all three computers know about to the corresponding folder of unique path.
E.g. create a "C:\Custom\OpenDental\Path" on each computer and then utilize the mklink command to link them to their corresponding "C:\users\[name]\onedrive" folder.

Then you should be able to use the new folder as the path within Open Dental now that all workstations know about the same folder.

However, this is only helpful if each of these unique OneDrive paths on each computer point to the same OneDrive account. If each doctor / computer has a different OneDrive account you have defeated the purpose. I just assumed this was not the case.
