The chore of updating documents previously at ProAktive
ProAktive staff endured the cumbersome manual process of updating documents, where crucial HR policy documents were stored across various SharePoint locations, each with different versions. Whenever a change was made to one of these, all the other versions required updating to reflect the same changes. To do this, ProAktive staff located all the versions themselves, and manually updated every single one.
The problem
It's just a few documents. What's the big deal?
Unnecessary time consumption: ProAktive's staff were drowning in a sea of document versions, spending valuable time updating minute details.
High risk of missing versions: Manual updates lead to inconsistencies and errors.
Our solution
To help ProAktive solve their frustration in updating their document, we developed an app that automates the generation of Word documents. Developed by Power Automate, the app simplifies the process by offering users two input boxes: one for specifying the text to be replaced and another for entering the new version. Once initiated, the app retrieves the original template, automatically replaces the specified text across all versions, and seamlessly saves them in SharePoint.
