Smart Documents for Dummies

This week we take a quick look at a very under used feature in Microsoft Office called “Smart Documents”.

Smart Documents are standard Office documents that have some additional code (not macros) associated with them.

We built such a Smart Document for a client who inspects second hand plant and equipment for purchase and resale.

In this case, the Smart Document was designed to step someone (who was new to purchasing equipment) through the process of gathering the information that was required in order to properly access the equipment for purchase/resale.

This allowed our client to employ someone of a lesser skill set to carry out tasks of a higher level through this clever use of technology.

If you have trouble finding staff that are sufficiently skilled in your business, perhaps Office’s Smart Documents might help your business.
