Across the enterprise, teams use Microsoft SharePoint sites to collaborate on documents and share information. You want to build SharePoint solutions that improve the productivity and efficiency of your organization, but you don’t want to write code. Where do you start?
With Microsoft SharePoint Designer, you can design no-code workflow solutions that manage simple to more complex business processes in an organization. Workflows add logic to both system and human processes. Workflows for system processes might update one data source when another data source changes. Workflows for human processes might send a document, such as an expense report, to an employee's manager for approval, and, if approved, on to the accounting department for processing.
This course is designed for the Power User, Site Owner, Site Collection Administrator, and Developer who want to learn to create custom SharePoint workflow solutions using SharePoint Designer, Visual Designer, and Visio.
