Hello, How are you? How is it so for? Hope you guys enjoying the SharePoint Conference here in Singapore, I am very proud and honour to be part of this big event and happy to share my experience with you guys. Ok
Let me introduce about myself,
I am FAIZAL , Microsoft MVP and I work for company called Dimension Data Singapore, I lead Azure User Group in Singapore ; if anyone of you are interested to be part of the UG, Pls. let me know.
Lets begin, Today I am going to talk about, rather walkthrough you guys with lots and lots of demo, how you can Boost your organizations productivity with Microsoft Office and SharePoint 2013..
Before I begin, let’s set the stage very clear, if anyone of you think that I am going to talk about any of this “Sorry” you are not in right place pls quickly change your room.
As you all knew that, the business productivity starts when employees collaborate with each other most efficiently.
In the context of fast-changing innovation economy, information workers should be empowered with tools to communicate critical business information with rich documents, presentations and Excel spreadsheets in real-time with colleagues/business partners.
Today In this session, I will explain how your organization can help to unlock the potential of your employees and maximize your business productivity using Microsoft Office and SharePoint 2013.

Everybody has different terminally what collaboration means?
Enterprise: Scalability, security, multiple language, support accessibility and integrated with my active directory so and so which we talk about “Enterprise”
Collaboration Software, what does mean these days, what I look at in high level what specific the tool does, is it wiki, blog, forum doesn’t matter the tool helps to work together for common goal, you can add lots of buzz word, what we need at end of the day is people “work together”
What we want to people to do, these day people take exciting actions, I call its new verb no longer people just reply, forward, people need to learn how to create, upload, like, pin, share, comment all short of things. Today people not just creating them self and they are co-creating it and finding it from other places and putting together.
Discover, no longer just type something up right in the corner hit enter to get information, modern day tools presenting you the information you want, instead of search for information, its showing you information on these are people or document you need follow, the group you should belong too, the document you should looking at. The total new ways of discovering information is existing.
Once you find information, create information you do these all the actions to that…
As first thing she wanted everyone to follow Standard Templates and Folder Structures, So She has proposal templates and she wanted her team use these template to prepare a proposal, quotation and presentation, So she decided to copy / save this template from her computer to Team site.
Let see the how she share these template with her team more efficiently.
Now she has challenge, she visited SharePoint Library to have a quick look who is working which documents, surprisingly there is no document checkout… So she decided to send an email and requested who is working on what? Everyone one comeback with list document they are working on, but and say they download template from SharePoint and working offline!
So she started to worry, when first person upload his document to SharePoint it will overwrite a current file with new file, when 2nd and 3rd person upload it will do the same…
So she need to prevent this issue
She also don’t wants everyone upload become new version, when someone is editing the document should be locked so that other knew that someone is edting
She wanted limited No. document version, and display version no. on view
So for we are working with Word Document,
Karan office has only limited office rooms, she need to meet many vendors, partners to discuss about the proposal and solutions, the internal team also wanted to book rooms,
She inform building management and secure 4 room in the buildings, there is an issue she need to manage all internal booking and ensure that there is no conflict booking and room available for the her team and the team self manage the booking.
Now she see to create quick booking system to manage this. She knew that there is calendar feature in SharePoint 2013 and she thought of using that to manage.
Avoid confusion while editing documentsWhen a file is checked out to you, you are the only one allowed making changes to it. The file will remain locked (checked-out) until you release it. Site admins with correct privileges can discard the checked-out lock made by a user.(Without check-out it will be released after 15 minutes on XP and 60 minutes on Vista, and you might encounter numerous problems while trying to find the person who locked the documents and releasing it
Control version numbers and metadataWith check-in/check-out enabled you will be able to control the version number with each save. You can also use the check-in form to provide additional comments about changes you made. When you are not using check-in/check-out every time* a new version will be created. This might lead to uncontrolled increase of versions, increase of your SharePoint database size and other unwanted side effects.
Find out who is currently editing a document‘Checked out to’ column always displays the name of the person currently editing a documents. It can be very useful for filtering or simply knowing which documents are currently being edited. Each document currently checked-out gets a small green icon with a white arrow (see figure below).
Draft documents While file is checked-out the changes you make are not visible to others. So if you are making and an important change to an important document you might want to hide the changes till you are finished.In case you do not like the changes you made simply discard the changes and revert to previously stored version.
Offline availabilityWhen document is checked-out from an Office 2007 program, a local copy is stored My Documents/Drafts folder. You can edit this document while offline.
Today I was talking about the all these feature and functions from SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013, the collaboration don’t stop at these stuff, its really required there key things “Trust, Conflict and Environment”
Trust : trust each other and share your ideas,
Conflict: conflict help to remove negative point from your proposal and help to shape up your proposal better.
Environment, Provide tools and opportunities to exchange ideas across department.
