Extend SharePoint with WorkEngine’s Cost Management Capabilities(Via Michelle)

Extractfrom the original post

"For this blog post, I thought I’d share some “outside the box” ideas on how to extend your current SharePoint Project Management environment by adding the power of WorkEngine’s Cost Management capabilities.

For instance, imagine you are using SharePoint to manage your bids and proposals. SharePoint offers a great enterprise content and collaboration platform to manage, collaborate and share complex RFQs with many suppliers and subcontractors. Throughout the purchasing lifecycle, organizations have activities that need to be managed for managing requisitions, bidding information, tender documents, RFQ, supplier responses, purchase orders and much more. If you are familiar with WorkEngine’s Work Management capabilities, it’s easy to understand how it will augment your SharePoint solution with visibility and tracking to all your work associated across multiple bids and proposals."

SharePoint, eContent and the GRC Challenge (Via Eric Darbe)

Extract from the original post “Every time an employee innocently sends a forgotten password to a co-worker over the system, every time an HR staffer forwards a resume to a hiring manager, every time a website content writer posts a new blog entry with an old brand mark — there’s a question of violation of GRC rules.

The Shattered Web

Just a few years ago, the term “eContent” would have been dismissed as a typo. Today, it’s a term that almost every organization has to deal with. With the enterprise moving online to a greater and greater extent, companies are finding enhanced efficiencies in electronic documents and collaborative workflow — creating a new kind of management challenge. Suddenly, Web 2.0 and 3.0 realities have come up against compliance requirements for privacy and risk management.”

Delivering Business Intelligence with SharePoint 2010 – a Twilight Recap (Via Rose Harris)

Extract from the original post

“Intergen’s SharePoint consultant Bernardine Slagter gave us insight into SharePoint 2010 and the Business Intelligence capabilities it offers. She took attendees through SharePoint 2010 and showed them how to facilitate better, faster, well-informed business decisions to meet business goals and improve overall operational effectiveness through SharePoint 2010.

SharePoint allows users to create their own dashboards where they can capture and present information from a number of different data sources (including SharePoint and Line of Business systems such as HR and Finance systems), in a number of different ways. Bernardine stressed the importance of users identifying what they need before implementing such a programme, allowing users to capture, filter and present information where it is most relevant. SharePoint offers an array of business intelligence tools that cater to different needs from Excel and Visio 2010 to PerformancePoint and Reporting Services. Bernardine also ran through the different graphical options to capture and present information from a simple table to multidimensional graphs.”

SharePoint PowerShell Timer Jobs: Run PowerShell scripts in SharePoint Timer Service context.(Via ikarstein)

Extract from the original post “I’ve created a new project that combines my two primary technical passions: SharePoint 2010 and PowerShell.

The project “SharePoint PowerShell Timer Jobs” lets you create, modify and delete SharePoint timer jobs that run PowerShell scripts in the context of the SharePoint Timer Service!

It’s on Codeplex – including source code:

• http://sppowershelltimerjob.codeplex.com.
• It’s "BETA" at the moment – version 0.1.0.0.

I hope you will love it! (If so please let me know!) – Please feel free to extend the project. If you do so please share your extensions with the community!!!

PowerShell Timer Jobs could be very useful. I’ll use it for “SharePoint Warmup”. Therefore I create a PowerShell script some months ago. This I will port to a PowerShell Timer Job and post it on my blog…”
