Take care of what’s important and automate the rest with Power Automate and Sharepointcloud365.
Streamline repetitive tasks and processes with Microsoft Power Automate—so you can focus your attention where it’s needed most.
How much resource is spent each day completing the same repetitive manual tasks?
Power Automate creates more time for what’s important. By utilising robotic process automation (RPA) and digital process automation (DPA) across your business to steamline tasks and free up your peoples most valuable resource, their time.
Whilst that may sound intimidating Microsoft Power Automate is part of the low-code/no-code Power Platform, a cloud-based tool for creating automated workflows.
Contemporary automation tools are transforming the way every industry operates. From farming to the finances, deploying automated processes (and removing costly human error) has helped businesses react to market changes faster, enhance customer service, and drive efficient business operations, powered by accurate data.
In an increasingly competitive market, Power Automate offers the capabilities of RPA and DPA without you needing complex coding knowledge.
Here are a few examples of how you can utilise Power Automate to drive efficiencies within your business
Manage approvals for documents, forms, travel, vacation requests, and more. A manual approach to approvals – and reminders – is inefficient.
Automating approvals combines human input with background workflows to ensure you get what you need quickly. Power Automate supports five types of approvals and custom approvals:
Store documents in a central location and track the creation of new files. Storing documents in a central place is key to collaboration, however, not everyone will remember to use your document library!
Power Automate provides templates, so you can streamline document management and drive collaboration.
Manage your time and stay on top of your to-do list. Power Automate offers many ways reduce your daily ‘busywork’ and create more time to spend with your team.
You’ll find templates under ‘Productivity’, ‘Notifications’, and ‘Events and Calendar’, including options to: keep track of project tasks in Planner with daily emails and notifications, get a daily email of upcoming meetings and so much more
Power Automate is available as an app within Microsoft Teams. From here, you can create and manage your flows without needing to switch between multiple apps.
Microsoft Power Automate also includes templates for Microsoft Teams, including: schedule a meeting with a message sender, send a meeting reminder to Microsoft Teams during weekdays and more.
