Document Information Panel - Field - "Currently Unavailable" in Office 365 and Office 2016

One of our clients use Word, Excel templates which has Document Information Panel and few tags and properties.

There is a property called "Author", this property is unavailable to users when they create new documents using Office 365 or Office 2016. Its says - currently unavailable


However if they create the new documents using Office 2010, the property works fine.

Any inputs of this issue please? I recreated the templates assuming it as SharePoint issue, but looks like it is more of local office client issue.

Thanks,

Manoj

Dates change from word to sharepoint to flow

August 29, 2018, 7:08 am

Help! This is essentially a combined question and I'm posting here as I can't figure out where the problem lies.

I have an MS Word form which is to be uploaded in a Sharepoint Document Library. This document library has two fields, StartDateTime and EndDateTime and these fields are added in the form. The form is completed offline and then uploaded to the Library.

Once the form is completed correctly, it is uploaded in the Library and then a Flow begins which connects to Trello, sends emails etc.

The problem is that, when the MS Word form is uploaded to Sharepoint, the StartDateTime and EndDateTime fields of the uploaded item, shift by around 7 hours. If I close and repoen the uploaded Word Form, the shifted hours will appear and not the ones the user entered. If I then change the DateTimes again, no shift will occur.

I've set both the sharepoint ilbrary (site) timezone settings and computer settings to the same timezone so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Any ideas?

Mobing list items in folders

September 19, 2018, 5:48 am

So my question is relevant in this scenario:

I want to create a list of personnel records in which 3 different departments can access. 

Since I only want each department to have access only to personnel of their own data (but HR can have access to all of the data), my solution was to create 3 folders "A", "B" and "C" and break permissions for each, so Department A can have access to folder "A" only, and so one.

If this happens through a sharepoint list, it works 100%. However, I want to use a powerapp, and this is what I've tried:

  1. Setting the Folder by updating the '{Path}' field of the item, does not work since the user is not allowed to change system fields.
  2. Changing the folder after an item is created using a Workflow. This would use the "Folder" field. This does not work for reasons I am not aware.

Any ideas?

Possibility of special permission in Document Library

Hey Guys,

I hope you can help me with a very tricky problem.

In my company we want to announce a SharePoint Site connected to a Microsoft Team. Therefore we created a new document library with all our different departments. Now I would like to have the following permission set:

Everyone inside the team can see all folders inside the document library, but not the files! The files should only be showed if someone shared the file with the person or give her access to the file.

First I thought it is okay to just set permission for the root folders of each department (then the user without permission do not see the folder) and if someone shares one file or folder inside the department folder all necessary folders will be shown to the user who get the shared file. But this is not working. I can use the link to access the folder or document but if I look inside the document library the "path" will not shown.

How can I solve this problem? Thank you for your help :)

Greetings

Managed Metadata Properties - not showing up anywhere

September 19, 2018, 7:30 am

I'm very new to SharePoint, and quite frustrated, so pardon me if I sound like an idiot or if I'm a bit short-tempered.  I'll try not to be.

My scenario is - 

Our help desk software has projects in it.  We'd like to store documents in an SPO library and associate them with the project.  Using the Content Organizer, we want to move the files for a particular project into a folder.  We'd also like to be able to search for files by Project #, Project Title, Requester, Department, Status, etc. etc.  Hopefully this is reasonable - seems like just the sort of thing SPO was made for.

After flirting with using a list and a lookup column for Project (can't use this because lookup columns don't seem to publish from the Content Type Hub), I decided to try using Managed Metadata (terms) with custom properties to store the project info.  Here are the issues I've run into with that:

  • There doesn't seem to be a way to specify that each term in a set has a given list of properties.  I expected to be able to specify that any children of the Projects set would have Project Number, Project Title, Requester, etc.
  • There doesn't seem to be any way to expose the custom properties anywhere in the UI except in the Term Store.  Can't add it as a column in the view, doesn't show in the Properties / Details pane...nowhere.  Not much use for information the user can't see.
  • The Content Organizer rules don't seem to recognize or offer any way to filter on custom properties.  either in the conditions nor in the folder creation rules.
  • Search doesn't seem to find anything based on the contents of the custom properties

So, I'm wondering two things -

  1. What are custom properties supposed to be used for?
  2. Is there any possible way to achieve my original goal?

Any help deeply appreciated - I'm running out of hair to tear out.

-Chris

SharePoint Online Browser Compatibility Issue_

I recently migrated my company’s SP 2010 site to SP online. I’ve run into an issue that maybe someone can shed some light on.

I use Firefox for browsing the internet.  I used to use IE for the SP 2010 site because SharePoint was built using Active X. Since moving to SP online, I have been able to use Firefox for the site and I’m happy with this.

I’ve noticed though, I still need IE for a few things. When editing the content of a content editor web part or HTML form web part, I cannot get the content window to load in a browser other than IE. Since IE has been discontinued, is there a workaround or do I need to still use IE? I’m asking this because support for IE ended on Jan 12, 2016 and my company is still running windows 7 on our PCs. I have not been able to test the edge browser since it is not supported in windows 7.

Powershell - autheticate once and use several Powershell modules/interfaces

September 19, 2018, 10:25 am

I am creating a Powershell script that writes details of Sharepoint (of a certain tenant) to an Excel sheet.
Think about information like:

- Tenant details: Get-SPOTenant | Export-Excel "$ReportFile" -WorksheetName "Tenant details"
- all Sharepoint online sites: Get-SPOSite -Detailed | select * | Export-Excel "$ReportFile" -WorksheetName "Sites"
- all SP templates: Get-SPOWebTemplate | Export-Excel "$ReportFile" -WorksheetName "Templates"
- all SPO groups: $Groups = Get-SPOSiteGroup -site $site | select *
- all SPO users

The script imports a SPO module:

Import-Module Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.PowerShell

And authenticates to the admin site:

$orgName = Read-Host "Enter the name of your Office 365 organization (ORGANISATIONNAME)"
Connect-SPOService -Url https://$orgName-admin.sharepoint.com

The way of authentication is prepared for "MFA" so I do not have credentials stored in variables.
(read https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/sharepoint/sharepoint-online/connect-sharepoint-online?view=sharepoint-ps)

The next thing I want to do is to write list and library information to the Excel sheet.

How can I prevent that I need to authenticate twice; because the example code needs credentials too.
I have entered them already to use cmdlets like Get-SPOSite and Get-SPOSiteGroup when running the script.

Code snippet for retrieving list objects:

$context = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($WebUrl)
$context.Credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($username, $password)
$web = $context.Web
# Retrieve all list objects
$lists = $web.Lists
$context.Load($web)
$context.Load($lists)
$context.ExecuteQuery()
# Etc ...

It there a way to prevent logging in for multiple O356/SPO APIs and have a "single sign on"?
Because the code will not work without setting $context.Credentials

Thanks.

Martijn

SharePoint Calendar (Online) Workflow

Hello,

Months before I arrived at this job, my current organization contracted a 3rd party to build an Out of Office calendar that essentially was going to be used as a requested time off kind of system. The user would click a tile in the calendar and add a request for time off, then the workflow would send an email to the supervisor for processing. It uses a "pending" & "approved" status system.

My supervisor says the whole workflow is unreliable/doesn't work. If we click on "IT Test", we are redirected to a "page not found" page. Furthermore, when I try to edit the workflow I get an error saying it can't be customized within the browser. I've heard before that the original user who created the workflow must be the one to edit it? Is this true? Any possible solution would be greatly appreciated.

Sharepoint Online List permission issues

Hi All, 

I am having a weird issue with permissions on a SharePoint list.  It is a very simple list with about 9 fields and an attachment.

Currently the user can create and delete items fine, the problem comes when they try to edit an item in the list. 

Our user can click on the edit button and see all of the fields that they need to change, and any attachments.  Once they make a change and click on OK the item will throw a "cannot save because of server error" type message.

I had the user go into the edit page, remove the attachment, make their changes, add the attachment and the record was allowed to change.  It makes it seem like the user does not have edit permissions on the attachment portion of the record, only add or delete.  Could there be something that I as missing? Some sort of attachment specific permission on the list?

Workflow design help

Hi all

I need help with designing or making my current workflow better. This is my first time creating a workflow so i am keen to learn. Please bear with my inexperience

The workflow is used for email notification based on status changes made on a sharepoint list. The list is a DIY Ticket system via sharepoint online. Current list is as below:

  1. When a ticket is created, an email will go to hello (my test email account) and the ticket creator
  2. When a tech picks up the ticket, he changes the status from open to pending and assigns the ticket. An email will go to both the ticket creator and tech which the ticket has been assigned to
  3. When there are changes made to the Notes text field, an email will be sent to the ticket creator. My attempt of keeping the ticket creator informed of updates to the ticket
  4. When the status is changes from pending to closed, an email will be sent to the ticket creator

Issues with this workflow at the moment

  1. When the ticket is still in Open status, any small changes to the ticket will result in another email being sent (this is to be expected?)
  2. In order for the ticket creator and tech to receive and email when the status is changed to Pending, the tech will have to first change the status from Open to Pending and then assign the ticket. If notes were entered during this process only the ticket creator gets an email (this is because of the If statement i know. Not sure how to approach this)
  3. When the tech adds a note in the Notes field, the ticket creator gets an email. When the ticket creator replies or enters a note in the Notes field, only they get an email. Is there a way to make it so that if the tech adds a note, the ticket creator gets and email and if the ticket creator adds a note the tech gets an email?

I hope to hear from you guys soon

Thanks for your time

I have a document library inside an online classic team site. the document library is linked to a term set using a site column named "Keywords" (internal name = "BibliographyKeywords"), as follow:-

enter image description here

And there is already a managed property created for me, inside the search schema, as follow:-

enter image description here

Now i want inside a modern page to show the documents (from certain sites) which are linked to certain terms inside the Keywords managed property column. so i find the new modern web part named "Highlighted content", which might help me in achieving this, where i define the following inside the "Highlighted content" web part, as follow:-

  1. for the Type i select "Documents"
  2. for the Filter and sort, i define the owstaxIdBibliographyKeywords managed property.

Here is screenshot of the "Highlighted content" modern web part settings:-

enter image description here

but i could not get things working the way i want, where i am facing these issues:-

  1. i got this result, which does not show any document:-

enter image description here

  1. second question , which is less important, now inside the document library i have defined a custom content type. but this cusotm content type is not showing inside the Type drop-down list. so does the "Highlighted content" web part's Type list only shows built-in Content types?.
