Ten Ways to Make SharePoint Solutions Better
SharePoint is a powerful platform for hosting custom forms and automated solutions. It offers a robust framework for businesses to streamline workflows, improve collaboration, and enhance document management. However, despite its versatility, building effective solutions in SharePoint can be challenging. Many users find that out-of-the-box SharePoint forms lack essential features, making interactions cumbersome and inefficient. When users struggle with slow performance, missing functionalities, or confusing layouts, the effectiveness of SharePoint diminishes.
The good news is that there are many ways to optimize SharePoint solutions, improving usability and user experience. In our upcoming webinar, we will showcase ten essential features you can add to your SharePoint solutions to boost productivity, enhance usability, and streamline operations. Whether you are an administrator, developer, or business analyst, these enhancements will help you build smarter and more efficient SharePoint solutions.
Why Enhancing SharePoint Solutions is Important
Improving SharePoint solutions ensures that users can interact with the system effortlessly. A well-designed SharePoint experience reduces frustration, increases adoption, and leads to better data accuracy. By implementing additional features and automations, organizations can:
- Enhance user satisfaction and productivity
- Reduce manual data entry and errors
- Automate repetitive tasks for efficiency
- Improve decision-making with better analytics
- Ensure compliance with organizational policies
Ten Features to Improve SharePoint Solutions
In our webinar, we will dive deep into ten key features that can significantly improve the user experience in SharePoint. Below is an overview of each feature and how it contributes to a more efficient solution.
- Custom History Tracking
One of the biggest challenges in SharePoint is tracking historical changes to list items and forms. With a custom history tracking feature, users can view past modifications, see who made changes, and understand the context of those updates. This is particularly useful for auditing, compliance, and quality control.
- Automated PDF Print Templates
Many organizations require printable versions of their SharePoint forms for record-keeping or reporting purposes. By integrating automated PDF print templates, users can generate professional-looking documents with just a click. This eliminates the need for manual data extraction and ensures consistency in printed reports.
- Form Buttons with Custom Actions
Adding custom buttons to SharePoint forms enhances user interaction by allowing actions such as submitting data, triggering workflows, or navigating to specific pages. These buttons streamline processes and reduce the number of clicks needed to complete a task.
- Dynamic Email Alert Rules
Standard SharePoint email notifications can be limiting. With dynamic email alert rules, users can receive tailored notifications based on specific criteria. This ensures that the right people are informed at the right time without unnecessary email clutter.
- Dynamic Approval Processing
Managing approvals efficiently is critical for workflow automation. Dynamic approval processing allows for conditional routing of approvals based on user roles, project status, or custom business rules. This eliminates bottlenecks and ensures faster decision-making.
- Dynamic Dashboards with KPI Indicators
Visualizing data is crucial for making informed business decisions. By implementing dynamic dashboards with KPI indicators, SharePoint users can get real-time insights into project progress, sales performance, or operational metrics. These dashboards help managers and executives track key metrics without digging through raw data.
- Real-Time Field Validation and Indicators
Data accuracy is essential for reliable reporting and decision-making. Real-time field validation ensures that users enter correct data before submission. Additionally, indicators such as color-coded warnings or tooltips provide instant feedback, preventing errors and reducing the need for follow-up corrections.
- Conditionally Shown Form Sections
Simplifying forms improves the user experience. By implementing conditionally shown form sections, users only see the fields relevant to their specific input. This declutters forms, making them more intuitive and reducing confusion.
- Dynamic Progress Tracking
Tracking progress dynamically allows users to see how far along they are in completing a process or filling out a form. This feature is particularly useful for multi-step workflows, where users can easily see pending tasks and remaining steps.
- Smarter User-Friendly Form Designs
At the core of an improved SharePoint solution is user-friendly form design. Ensuring that forms are structured logically, have clear instructions, and use intuitive layouts can make a significant difference in user adoption and satisfaction.
