Effectively managing resources—be it personnel, equipment, or time—is crucial for any organization's success. Leveraging Microsoft SharePoint in conjunction with Infowise Ultimate Forms offers a robust, no-code solution for streamlining resource management and scheduling processes.


Understanding Resource Management and Scheduling

Resource management encompasses the strategic planning, allocation, and utilization of an organization's assets to achieve project goals efficiently. Scheduling, a subset of resource management, focuses on the temporal assignment of these resources to ensure optimal productivity and avoid conflicts.

Without dedicated tools, managing these aspects can become complex, especially as organizations scale. SharePoint provides a centralized platform for data storage and collaboration, while Infowise UF enhances it with customizable forms, workflows, and automation capabilities, eliminating the need for custom coding.


Implementing Resource Management with SharePoint and Infowise Ultimate Forms

Step 1: Establish a Resource Management List

  1. Create a New SharePoint List: Navigate to your SharePoint site, go to Site Contents, and click on New > List. Name it "Resource Management". You can also use Form Generator in Ultimate Forms to speed up the process.

  2. Define Essential Columns:

    • Resource Name: Title of the resource (e.g., John Doe, Conference Room A).

    • Resource Type: Choice column with options like Personnel, Equipment, or Facility.

    • Availability Status: Choice column with options such as Available, In Use, or Under Maintenance.

    • Assigned Task/Project: Lookup field linking to ongoing projects or tasks.

    • Start Date and End Date: Date pickers to schedule resource allocation.

    • Notes: Multiline text for additional information.

Step 2: Customize Forms with Infowise Ultimate Forms

Utilize Infowise UF's Form Designer to create intuitive and user-friendly forms:

  • Drag-and-Drop Interface: Easily arrange fields to suit your workflow.

  • Conditional Formatting: Display or hide fields based on specific criteria.

  • Tabs and Sections: Organize information logically for better usability.

For a detailed guide on form customization, refer to Infowise's documentation.

Step 3: Automate Workflows and Notifications

Infowise UF allows you to set up automated actions to streamline processes:
