Sharepoint Permissions Shared with

When someone shares a document but doesn't include the owner (I am the owner) I can't see it! This is a big problem because if someone publish different documents but only he and his group can see it, if they leave the company how can I find this documents??

If someone shares a document exclude the file owner, the file owner will not see the document. It's by design.

As a workaround, you could set the file owner as the site collection administrator. Even if someone shares a document exclude the file owner, the file owner can also see the document.

Update:

1.Click site permissions in the site settings.

2.Advanced permission settings -> Site Collection Administrators. enter image description here enter image description here
