Daily Security Passphrase
We operate remote store locations around the US. When a corporate employee calls a store location on the phone we need a way for the store employee to be able to validate that the caller is legitimate and from corporate. We want to create a widget or app on our internal SharePoint operations page that will automatically generate a random security passphrase or code each day. When the caller calls the store, the store employee can look on the SharePoint page and see the passphrase. They can them ask the corporate caller what the daily passphrase is. The Corporate caller can access the same internal page and recite the daily code to the store staff member. If they match, the call is legit. How do I create this widget? Is there something I can use out-of-the-box? I am non-technical so I need help understanding how to build this type of solution.
AutoNumbering Columns in SharePoint List
Good morning, I have a Sharepoint list used for tracking my documents. I manually number each document, but this has become challenging over the past month. Is there a way to automatically create a unique ID? I need something that starts with the two-digit year and has the document number created that year. for example, 22-205 22 for the two-digit year 205 for the document added that year. The number will also need to be reset every year. Once January first, 2023 comes, the following document created will be 23-001. Can someone assist me?Power App form locale settings?
I have a Power App form connected to a Sharepoint list on a subsite. I'm having issues with the default form showing that I've asked in a separate post. When the form does show, the regional display of the dates are incorrect. They should be English UK, but are showing as US. They're correct in Power Apps when 'playing' the form for preview. I've checked the regional settings and they are as they should be. Also, it ignores the padding I've set on the dates (date pickers) and combo box controls. While creating the form: While using the form in the Sharepoint List:
List Permissions
Hi Everyone, We have a power app that is linked to a list. We are collecting private information eg. copies of a driver's license. Is there a way I can make the app open so that anyone can use it to upload their data, but the list is restricted to keep the data secure and only the people who need to see it can? My understanding is that we need to keep all the app user as contribute in the list permissions for them to use the app. Is there a way around this? Thanks!
Imported DOTX template creates error when opening document in app
Hi all, Just created a new library for testing a few things with documents. I imported a fully working sample template (it works on a local disk and network share) to my SharePoint library: When clicking it, it successfully creates a Word document that opens in the Word desktop app, but it's then showing this: Translation: "Word was unable to read this document. It may be corrupted. Try one the following operations: - Open and repair the file - Open the file with the Text Recovery Converter" If I then close it and right click -> Open in browser, it get this popup (first time opening the DOCX): I can then edit my template. Furthermore, if I click on "Edit" ("Modification" here) -> Open in app, it get the same error message as above. This problem is occuring with every template I upload (they are all created with Word M365 version if you're wondering). I want my users to be able to edit a template-generated document from the app, like any other doc. What is going on here? Thanks in advance for your help!How do I create an employee buy & sell (a.k.a. classified ads) site?
What is the best way to create an employee buy & sell site, i.e. a classified ads? The site should allow employees to self-post items for sale, search for items, and ideally respond with comments or easily reach out to the employee that posted the ad. Is there a SharePoint out-of-the-box web part for this, or a free/low-cost 3rd party add on?Best place to learn almost everything about SharePoint?
