Gareth Johns IT Skills Development Advisor

Course Aim
Enable you to administer a team site's structure, content, security permissions and document libraries
3
Session Objectives
By the end of this session you should be able to:• Create new team sites to share content between team
members.• Personalise a team site by adding site-specific text, images
and web parts, and by customising navigation options. • Use SharePoint lists, such as Announcements, Links and
Tasks to enhance communication between team members. • Grant staff appropriate permission levels to a team site to
ensure data is kept securely.• Construct an appropriate security structure for team sites,
sub-sites and document libraries by using permission inheritance and SharePoint groups.• Administer SharePoint document libraries by creating,
modifying and deleting libraries.

Team Sites vs. Portal Sites (TSR)
The portal is a ‘shop window’, designed and managed by a few shopkeepers. The end product is visible to many visitors.
Team Sites are ‘factories’ where all contribute but have no or few visitors.
5
Administrator Roles
As a Team Site Administrator you have three main responsibilities:
1. Creating Team Sites and administering their content
2. Administering users (Adding/Removing/Changing Permissions)
3. Administering document libraries (Adding/Removing/Modifying)
6
A Team Site can have many subsites. Reasons for a new subsite:• different purpose to the main site.• different target audience to the main site.
Why Create a Team Site?
7
Examples of Team Site Usage
A unit/school may create a subsite for:• A project currently
being undertaken. E.g. CSAD move from Howard Gardens• A distinct team within
the division. E.g. Creative Services.• A new committee has
been formed.
9
Able to customise site to enhance communication & collaboration.• Customise text and images.• Add a site navigator web part to
improve navigation. • Add lists. E.g. announcements, tasks,
team discussion.
Customising a Team Site
10
Lists are a collection of similar pieces of data, each of which have associated properties.
E.g. a list of tasks - a collection of tasks - each task has properties – due date, urgency.
A new team site has a set of default lists: announcements, calendar, links and tasks.
Lists
11
Team Site – Site Settings
Title, description, icon (&URL): configure initial setup options.
Quick launch & Top link bar: customise navigation
Site Theme: add flavour Delete this site: use with extreme caution – not recycled.
12
Permissions
Permissions define the level of access a user or group has to a team site.
Permissions can also be applied to libraries and individual documents.
13
Permission Levels
Full Control: full admin rights – use with caution. (Typically Team Site Administrators)
Contribute: able to create, edit and delete documents. No site administration privileges. (Typically team members)
Read: can read documents, but no rights to modify or delete. (Typically other school/unit staff)
14
Permissions – Full Control
A user with Full Control permissions can:• create and delete team sites
and libraries.• grant new users permission
to the site and libraries.• change access levels of
existing users.
PLUS has all the privileges of “contributors” – add, remove and modify documents.
15
Permission Inheritance
Team sites can inherit permissions.
When permission inheritance is enabled, the permissions on the current site are identical to the parent site. They can only be modified by changing the parent site.
Team sites can have unique permissions. When permission inheritance is disabled, the site will have a unique set of permissions.

Applying Unique Permissions
A new site, by default, inherits permissions from its parent.
Changing to unique permissions copies permissions from the parent to the new site.
Permissions can now be changed independently of the parent site. E.g.:• Grant colleagues access to your
new site• Give a group permission to read
your site, but not contribute.17

Groups can be used to manage permissions for multiple users.
New members can be added to a group to gain access to a site.
Permission operations (add/remove/modify) can be applied to groups in the same way as individual users.
Groups
19
Advantages of Groups
• Permissions need only be set for one entity (the group). • Fewer mistakes• Less time consuming• Can reuse existing groups on new team sites.
20
Document Libraries are a special type of list that store documents.
A Team Site can host many different libraries.
Use libraries to store documents relating to one subject, entity or activity.
Document Libraries
23
Document Library Settings
Title, Description, Navigation: change options set when creating library.
Versioning Settings: enable/disable.
Delete…library: Sends library and contents to Recycle Bin.
Permissions…library: permissions can be set independently of the parent site.
