The Bottom Line
People just want to get work done
Technology enable us to achieve results
Learning is not sequential, it’s a personal experience
Knowledge is interactive!
People learn things they decide to learn, no what teacher
teach, keep in mind!
We no longer remember things we know we can find!

SharePoint
The new SharePoint is all about getting things done
together.
SharePoint has a lot of features, capabilities, functionality
available out of the box (OOB).
What I will cover today:
How to simplify a site and make effective use of OOB capabilities
Make sure SharePoint works well for the end user and try to
maximize adoption
Focus on file management and user experience
Lots of demos!
@sanspug
Common way to set up SharePoint for
dealing with documents
Like a file share (folders and default view)
1. Folders – lots of clicking, single dimension for viewing
2. No metadata – no navigation, no search
Great for contributors, a nightmare for consumers

Common way to set up SharePoint for
dealing with documents
Metadata instead of folders
1. Unfamiliar to users
2. Forces users to add metadata (they’re lazy and will pick the 1st
choice)
3. No good drag & drop & tag
4. No good offline experience
Great for consumers, a nightmare for contributors

Site Metadata
Manage Metadata It’s a service for storing Terms and use those
terms to Tag content
The goal is to use Terms to describe content and provide better meaning to non relational or unstructured data like files, presentations, excel spreadsheets or word documents
We can define terms in a hierarchy up to 7 nested levels
Companies use it to describe strategic terms or business topics that content can be related to
SharePoint offers a lot of integrated features for tagging content using terms and provide the basics for knowledge management

Site Columns
Site columns are data type
definitions, centrally
managed and can be used
to reference a data value on
any a list or library in the
site collection or sub site.

Site Content Types
Content Types are data structures that represent a business entity, they group Site Columns.
Content Types represent the different types of information and content existing on a site.
Content Type is a composite of configuration settings for your content, settings like Information Management, Workflows.
Content Type support inheritance so you can re-use and extend settings
In order to provide meaning and context
to the content stored we need to define a
set of Content Types that make sense to
your business in order to provide a
consistent approach for the type of content
that the Intranet will support today and
tomorrow.
@sanspug
Site Content Types - Examples
Name Description
Proposal We can define a content type by the type of document that we
represent, in this case a proposal.
Human Resource We can define a content type based on the Department that will
use it. So any document or file that exist in the Human Resource
site can be easily identified

Views
Views allow us to visualize the
data in different way. Highly
flexible for create
representation of our content.
Use a view to display recent
documents for content
consumers and a another view
to display folder structure for
content creators

Folders
Folders are great for people that contribute with content. Represent a hierarchical view of the data. Folders are not so great for people that consume the content, they need to drill down in order to get what they want.
Three valid reasons for folders:
Security – Security Trimming
Location-based default values
SharePoint Library Sync & OneDrive for Business
We can associate Metadata terms to a folder hierarchy for auto default metadata values in content using Default Column Values

People like to work they way the know. So with
OneDrive for Business we can enable user to work
locally in offline mode, content creators will just drag and
drop to local folder
