July 26 Meet & Greet

P&P SIG had another Meet & Greet on July 26, 2023. Thank you to everyone who joined!

SIG manager Sam Lee introduced the P&P SIG’s new mascot, Monte Carlo, who has been travelling everywhere with SIG member Tricia Spayer since 2006.

The SIG now also has a members-only contest involving Monte and his travels. Each month Tricia Spayer will post a photo of Monte, and you get to guess where in the world Monte is. Email your response to stcppsig2022@gmail.com by July 31 for a chance to win a $15 Amazon gift card.

To see this month’s photo of Monte and learn more about the contest, watch the video below or see the P&P SIG’s July newsletter.

Feel free to watch and leave a message with any questions, feedback, or suggestions.

The Meet & Greet also included time for free discussion. Among the highlights was a lively debate about the differences between processes and procedures.

Create a Simple Business Request Form In Microsoft Power Apps

Webinar presented: August 30, 2022

Presenter: Aleshia Jefferson

In this webinar, Aleshia Jefferson used a spreadsheet pre-template to document the metadata necessary to build a form in MS Power Apps. The pre-template allows you to keep track of the data you want to capture, so you have a model for presenting your thoughts and ideas to your customer, and it allows you to troubleshoot or make changes before you build your list in SharePoint. The recording* discusses the pre-template, some salient points about SharePoint, and building the MS Power Apps form.

Below is a copy of the presentation with handy tips and resources along with an example of a pre-template and some formulas that can be used with MS Power Apps:

*Due to technical difficulties, the recording will be posted at a later date.
