An overview of SharePoint integration

One of the many obstacles the sales team faces when handling prospective clients is the never-ending parade of paperwork needed to close a deal. At times, it is overwhelming to keep track of quotations, descriptions, specifications, purchase orders, RFPs, RFQs and many others.

We are sure that most of us have found ways with network share drives, public email directories, or personal folders that we don't share with others out of desperation. These solutions, however, become dumpling grounds for documents due to a lack of teamwork and weak search functionality and we end up abandoning those documents out of frustration. Here's an eye-opener â€" even if you're using a sophisticated document management system like SharePoint, there's a dissonance between sales processes and CRM systems.

To solve this, we have Microsoft Dynamics CRM and SharePoint integration. This integration works like magic that makes all disparate documents easy to manage. Here are some key benefits that add business values to your business:

• The integration can be configured with CRM online or on-premise
• The integration can also be configured to work with most CRM entity, such as Accounts or Opportunities, as well as custom entities you create.
• You get to leverage dedicated SharePoint folders to set up as per CRM record basis to organize your document management
• SharePoint users outside the CRM framework can view the file uploaded to CRM integrated SharePoint directories

Once you have it all configured, you will be amazed at how easy your document management has become! SharePoint Online Integration with Dynamics CRM is extremely useful.
