Why Customize SharePoint for Issue Tracking?

SharePoint is a versatile platform that offers extensive capabilities for managing various business processes, including issue tracking. However, out-of-the-box features may not always meet your organization's specific needs. Customizing SharePoint allows you to tailor the platform to suit your workflow better, improve communication, and enhance overall efficiency.

Step-by-Step Customization

Step 1: Identify Your Needs

Determine what issues need to be tracked and the workflow that suits your organization's needs. Consider the types of issues you encounter, the data you need to collect, and the steps required to resolve these issues.

Step 2: Set Up SharePoint Lists

Create lists to log issues, including necessary fields such as issue type, priority, status, and assignee. SharePoint lists provide a structured way to capture and organize data, making managing and tracking issues easier.
