In the demo below, Peter Kalmström explains which automation
types we commonly use, and after that he gives some examples
on custom forms that the kalmstrom.com team has created
for either standard products or custom solutions.
Peter shows examples on:
Mobile-friendly SharePoint forms with plenty of
touch-friendly functionality.
Maintaining relationships between several lists
in a user-friendly way, without using the bug-ridden
lookup columns.
Building for search from start - creating site columns
and content types automatically with PowerShell.
Copying and pasting information from Excel in a
reliable manner - grid functionality.
Organizing columns in tabs and color-coding columns
based on business rules both in forms and in views.
Locking down certain columns based on business rules
or who the logged in user is (role based/column level
"security")
Parent-child relationships between lists or within
one item, stored as Json.
Working with the geo-location column and replacing
Bing with Google maps as well as allowing the user to
search and pick a location from the familiar Google
Maps UI.
Shopping-cart functionality to order multiple items
based on SharePoint lists. Using the familiar UI metaphor
of a shopping cart to fill out a SharePoint form.
Drag and drop of items to change metadata instead
of the regular dropdowns.
