Can SharePoint be expanded into a fully-fledged DMS?

SharePoint from Microsoft enjoys great popularity as a cloud-based platform for digital teamwork in companies. Teams use SharePoint to edit, comment on, adapt and further develop files and documents together. It is used to manage projects and coordinate tasks. All company documents such as invoices, receipts and contracts can also be stored there.

The idea of expanding Microsoft SharePoint into a fully-fledged document management system (DMS) is therefore an obvious one.

 

However, using SharePoint purely as a file system does not meet the requirements for legally compliant storage. The documents stored there are neither audit-proof nor do they fulfill the central principles of good and sustainable archiving.

The solution

This is where our partner Portal Systems significantly extends the functionality of SharePoint with "Shareflex" and thus provides a suitable solution. Shareflex is an add-on for SharePoint that transforms the Microsoft platform into a comprehensive solution for business applications, including a fully-fledged document management system (DMS).

A key element of this Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution is the ability to archive incoming and outgoing documents in SharePoint in a legally compliant manner. This includes a structured organization of documents, indexing, authorization management, deadline management and the integration of all relevant meta information.

 

With the upgrade of Microsoft SharePoint by Shareflex to a complete DMS, the Business Central Connector for Shareflex now facilitates the automation of all document management processes. This includes, in particular, automatic archiving and comprehensive automatic indexing of all incoming and outgoing documents.

You stay within the Microsoft ecosystem

The interaction of "SharePoint / Shareflex - Connector - Business Central ERP" offers another significant benefit in addition to the advantages already mentioned: the ability to remain completely within the Microsoft ecosystem.

ERP systems are generally not document management systems and, conversely, document management systems, even with advanced functions such as ECM, cannot replace ERP systems. The integration of these essential digital tools has so far often resulted in a mixture of products from different manufacturers.

With the introduction of Shareflex and the Connector for Shareflex, however, this is changing. These solutions offer both DMS and ERP functionalities under the Microsoft umbrella, allowing users to benefit from the high quality standard that Microsoft is known for.
