7 We did it! Took us “only”: 5 clicks 3 page post-backs
What if we had a “Close Task” action? Single click!
15 At the office I can enjoy the “ portal experience ”
I don’t need our entire portal inside my smartphone! But when I am out of the office…
I don’t need a long list of all the libraries and lists in my site!
I do Not need a Portal while I am on the road! I do Not need a Portal while I am on the road!
This challenge is not new.. Information Overload vs. Limited display size Limited time A “non-office” environment

Demo Creating a custom-tailored Sales mobile workspace

So, how do we create this “custom mobile page”? 1 Create mobile page 2 Create page parts 3 Create custom actions
Let’s create a new custom mobile page
33 1 2
Type page name and click “Add Page”
Page added, let’s preview it
Let’s create a KPI page part
Type the page part’s name and click “Add Page Part”
Page part added. Now let’s connect it to the KPI list.
Select “List View” type
Select the requested list and view (Can be a remote list) Let’s click “Apply” and preview the result mobile page
Create “Actions” page part and four custom actions 41

Select “Sales Leads” list
Select View or Action for that list
Select icon for the action And click “Add” to add the action to the page part

Create the next action same way, just connect to the “Products” list
Let’s click Apply and preview the result UI

So far, we used OOTB actions that simply display views. Let’s create a Custom Action, called: “New urgent task”
Create a custom list action: “New urgent task” “%complete”, “Status” fields are hidden with defined defaults “Assigned to” by default will be the creator (Impossible to do with SharePoint OOTB) “Start Date” = Today “Due Date” = Tomorrow Priority = High (Do not show these fields)
1 2
Let’s add a list custom action to the Tasks list
1 Add the action
2 Update the action’s properties
3 Define who should see this action 4 Define in which views the action should be visible
5 Check to create a new task item
6 8 Workflows to trigger after item has been created Configure the fields that will be auto-updated in the new created follow-up task Which item fields should be displayed 7
Going back to our custom mobile settings page Let’s add the “New urgent task” Custom action to the Actions page part.
Now this custom action is available for us to use
After adding this custom action, let’s save settings and see how it works…
Let’s click to create a new urgent task √Less data entry, less mistakes √Less page post-backs √Faster update time Only the fields that require user-input appear, all other are auto-updated
Create an item custom action: “Close Task” Should be available only to the task’s owner Set status = Completed Set %Complete=100% Redirect to “My Tasks” view
1 2
Let’s add an item custom action to the Tasks list
1 Add the action
2 Update the action’s properties Redirect to “My Tasks” view after completion
3 Define who should see this action (Static permissions) Define dynamic conditions for the action’s visibility 4
5 Check to update the item’s properties 6 Configure the fields that will be auto-updated Let’s click “OK” and browse the Tasks list to see the results
Let’s view one of the tasks Viewing the Tasks list as an administrator
The task is Not assigned to me Let’s click the “Actions” menu
The “Close Task” custom action is not available (I am not the task’s owner) Let’s login as testclient1 user…
Logged-in as testclient1
The “Close Task” custom action is now available (I am the task’s owner) Let’s click to close the task
We are redirected to the “My Tasks” view, as configured Let’s click to view this task again
Now the task is completed If we click the “Actions” button again…
The “Close Task” is no longer available. because it is not relevant to the current context.
