Wonder what types of Power Apps you can create? We recently had a customer inquire about a custom web part to celebrate associate anniversaries. They had been using legacy custom code that was being updated each month to display a SharePoint Page Showing Associate anniversaries, the associate’s photo, and allows their teammates to comment/congratulate each other. While I can’t show you the actual customers page it looked a little something like this. Not bad, pretty simple and the manual updating each month was the real issue.
They were looking for a newer solution that addressed the following details.
-Automatically updates to the current months anniversaries[br_tc]-Displays the associates profile photo[br_tc]-Displays associate details, number of years, name, hire date[br_tc]-Allows others to comment[br_tc]-Alerts the associate via email if they receive a comment[br_tc]-Trophy (call out) for milestone anniversaries[br_tc][nbsp_tc]
I wanted to create a solution with a modern look, easy to update maintain and address all the customers’ requests. I was able to create this solution with a combination of Power Apps, SharePoint Lists, and Flow. By using Power Apps I was able to create a relatively no-code solution for our customers and use SharePoint lists to manage the data making it easy for the customer’s HR team to update.
