Document templates automatically
Centralized management of document templates using the document template management application unifies document management practices and facilitates the distribution of templates to Teams groups or SharePoint sites
Document management based on document templates and the use of metadata makes working with documents such as contracts, offers, and project documents more efficient. The centralized management and distribution of document templates to Teams groups or SharePoint workgroup sites can be a challenge on the Microsoft 365 platform.
These challenges can be solved and the distribution of document templates to teams and sites is successful with the help of the application for centralized management of document templates.
Document templates, which can be, for example, a ready-made document template as a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, can contain elements in line with the corporate look, such as uniform header and footer areas, tags, and other graphic elements, as well as typography. In addition, they can contain metadata stored in SharePoint columns.
Asiakirjamallit Wordiin, Exceliin ja PowerPointiin
Asiakirjamallit voivat olla Word-, Excel- ja PowerPoint-tiedostoina, ja ne voivat sisältää yritysilmeen mukaisia elementtejä, kuten yhtenäiset otsikko- ja jalkioalueet, tunnisteet ja muut graafiset elementit sekä typografian. Lisäksi ne voivat sisältää SharePointin sarakkeisiin tallentuvaa metatietoa.
Asiakirjamallin ohjausobjektien avulla metatietoa voidaan hyödyntää myös itse asiakirjan sisällössä.
Metadata can be, for example:
- Document types, such as a contract, offer, project plan, or a meeting memo
- Project name and/or number
- Process or process step
- The name of a person, such as a project manager
- The customer’s name or identification information
- Cost center, business unit, and so on.
Asiakirjojen hallintasovellus tuo tehokkuutta dokumenttien laadintaan
Asiakirjamallien keskitetyn hallinnan sovelluksen avulla voit päivittää asiakirjamallien ominaisuuksia keskitetysti ja niihin tehdyt muutokset voit ottaa työyhteisösi käyttöön välittömästi.
Metatietojen käyttämisen pitäisi olla mahdollisimman laajaa, mutta automaattista, jottei metatietojen täydentäminen jää dokumentin laatijan työlääksi tehtäväksi ja niiden oikeellisuus kokonaan hänen vastuulleen. Asiakirjamallien keskitetyn hallinnan sovellus varmistaa, että uusi dokumentti sisältää välttämättömät, asiakirjamallille esiasetetut metatietoarvot joka kerta ja helpottaa dokumenttien laatimista.
Dokumenttien metatietojen hyödyntämisessä vain taivas on rajana. Automaattisesti määriteltyjen metatietojen avulla organisaatiosi dokumenttien sisältämä tieto jäsentyy, löytyy ja pysyy ajan tasalla.
