Some investors believe Treasury yields are close to peaking, even as markets continue pricing in more hawkishness from a Federal Reserve bent on taming the worst inflation in decades. It's a refrain that has been heard more than once in 2022, as a steep selloff in Treasuries steamrolls investors who bet markets would soon reverse, while battering stocks and fueling the dollar’s climb. The tumble in bonds has intensified in recent days, as U.S. Treasury yields – which move inversely to prices – hit their highest levels since the 2008 global financial crisis on concerns that the Fed would need to raise rates more aggressively to bring down consumer prices.

MyCase Announces Release of Accounting and Robust Document Automation Integration, Further Enhancing Legal Tech Platform – Business Wire
SAN DIEGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–MyCase, a leading provider of cloud-based legal practice management software and payment services to law firms, now has a built-in, fully integrated accounting solution in its legal platform and has added a robust document automation integration.
“It is critical for lawyers to streamline their practices by maintaining visibility and control over financial transactions while also automating their firm’s workflows,” said Dru Armstrong, CEO of MyCase. “By leveraging the technologies of two companies acquired last year, Soluno and Woodpecker, we’ve made both accounting and robust document automation available in the MyCase platform. Our acquisitions have enabled us to continue to expand the features and functionality of the MyCase platform so that we can provide law firms with the convenience and flexibility needed to get more done without ever leaving MyCase.”
MyCase Accounting
MyCase Accounting is custom-built for lawyers and offers full-featured, ethically compliant accounting capabilities. The addition of robust accounting to the MyCase platform centralizes law firm financial data, eliminates redundant data entry across multiple systems, and ensures regulatory compliance with easy, three-way trust reconciliation.
External integrations with other accounting software solutions are no longer needed. With all financial data stored in one location, MyCase customers can avoid duplicative data entry and the need to reconcile accounts across different platforms. With MyCase Accounting, client ledgers for three-way trust reconciliation can be automatically generated, and checks can be issued directly within MyCase, ensuring visibility and control over all law firm financial transactions.
“MyCase Accounting is much simpler than the previous software I used,” says Jonathan Watson, an attorney with Watson Law. “Even with little to no knowledge of accounting, I was able to reconcile accounts and run insightful reports in 30 minutes.”
Woodpecker Document Automation Integration
The recently-released Woodpecker integration saves time and money for lawyers by automating a firm’s standardized legal document-creation process. This new integration between MyCase and Woodpecker allows law firms to use case and client information from MyCase to create documents from Woodpecker templates, directly in the MyCase platform. Using conditional logic, the text and language of a document or contract can be easily revised, and multiple documents for one or more clients can be created quickly and efficiently with a few clicks.
“Woodpecker automation improved our efficiency in preparing documents for our firm before the integration with MyCase,” says Sarah Harrison, Practice Manager and Senior Paralegal at Corley Legal, PLLC. “Since the integration, using Woodpecker templates through MyCase has taken that efficiency to another level. It further speeds up the process of preparing documents and cuts down errors in the drafting of motions and documents.”
The announcement of MyCase Accounting and a robust document automation integration follow the news of the acquisition of MyCase by AffiniPay (parent company of LawPay), the product release of MyCase Drive, and MyCase’s acquisition of Docketwise. The latest additions are examples of the many value-added innovations to the MyCase platform that have established the company as the one-stop legal technology ecosystem for law firms. With robust legal accounting and document automation functionality now available in the MyCase platform, along with many new integrations, including LawPay, Intaker, Kenect, and Ruby, MyCase provides the tools lawyers need to get work done.
About MyCase
MyCase is complete legal practice management software designed for the modern law firm. MyCase covers the entire client lifecycle with Lead Management, Case Management, Billing and Invoicing, and robust Reporting. It includes market-leading features such as integrated Payments, 2-way text messaging, and the MyCase Client Portal to centralize client communication and share files securely. In 2022, MyCase was acquired by AffiniPay, parent company of LawPay, the market-leading payments platform. The AffiniPay family of brands includes MyCase, Soluno, CASEpeer, Docketwise, LawPay, and Woodpecker. Learn more at www.mycase.com.
About Woodpecker
Woodpecker was founded in 2017 to make robust document automation more intuitive and more accessible to solo practitioners and small law firms. As a Word Add-In, Woodpecker meets lawyers where they already work, requires no coding knowledge, and is compatible with Mac, PC, and Word Online. Woodpecker was acquired by MyCase in 2021.

The Global Subscription Billing Management Market size is expected to reach $14.1 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 15.7% CAGR during the forecast period – Yahoo Finance
An invoice, bill, or tab is a commercial document sent by a seller to a buyer in conjunction with a sale. It details the agreed-upon products, quantities, and pricing for any goods or services given by the seller to the consumer.
New York, Oct. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report “Global Subscription Billing Management Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By End-use, By Organization Size, By Deployment Type, By Component, By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2022 – 2028” – https://www.reportlinker.com/p06352783/?utm_source=GNW
In most circumstances, the payment conditions are included on the invoice. These can specify the number of days the buyer has to pay, and they may also provide a discount for purchases made in advance of the due date.
The customer may have already paid for the items or services listed on the invoice. Some sellers note in large, capitalized characters on an invoice whether it has been paid to avoid misunderstandings and the subsequent unneeded interactions between buyer and seller. A bill is a sales statement from the perspective of the seller. From the viewpoint of the buyer, a bill is a transaction invoice. The document identifies the buyer and seller, even though the word “invoice” suggests a financial obligation.
In conjunction with recurrent payments, subscription billing refers to the automatic, recurring billing procedure that takes place after a customer joins up to utilize a service. This could involve receiving a bill each month for a subscription to a magazine, streaming service, SaaS item, “box of the month,” or other recurring services of a similar nature. Regular charges are made to customers, but they are free to stop at any moment. The amount owing to the client is automatically transferred from their account to the company instead of being harassed for payment regularly. The client receives a receipt, but other than that, nothing happens in the transaction.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The economy was severely impacted by the abrupt emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Subscription billing companies are persevering to be resilient despite these supply chain limitations, operational setbacks, and a circumstance of a worldwide recession. Additionally, the impact of subscriptions for B2B and B2C software and information services is minimal. However, several industries, such as consumer Internet of Things (IoT), travel and hospitality, commercial IoT services, sports-related assistance, and technology for small businesses are seeing a detrimental impact on their growth. The COVID-19 pandemic is also estimated to have an impact on the market expansion because of the uneven adoption of subscription services across different industries.
Market Growth Factors
Increase in subscription-based business model adoption
There has been an increase in B2B and B2C firms’ subscription-based recurring income. Businesses are increasingly using subscription as a service (SAAS) because clients want to rent software rather than purchase it. A majority of online buyers are engaged in subscription programs and get items on a recurrent basis. Notable technological businesses such as Uber, Spotify, Apple, and Google LLC are transitioning from a static and linear product offering to a subscription-based model to promote consistent, predictable, and recurring income. The media and entertainment industry have had the most significant rise in subscriptions over the past few years. This is augmenting the growth of the subscription billing management market.
Customer demand for adaptability of subscription
The demand for greater purchasing freedom among customers has also grown. As the economic effects of the pandemic caused havoc on the finances of many people, it became more important than ever for consumers to be able to purchase and pay for exactly what they wanted and would utilize. Customers looking to save money rushed to product-as-a-service agreements, which strengthened subscription models. However, it also raised the demand for pay-per-use and other utilization subscription options. Under these systems, customers may personalize their purchases to receive only what they need, when they need it. Customers like the versatility; for companies, the reduced initial investment encourages customers to remain and try new things, especially during times of transition.

How to easily open files with sudo privileges in the GNOME File Manager
Your email has been sent
If you’re tired of having to jump through hoops to open files with sudo privileges in the GNOME File Manager, Jack Wallen has just the trick you need.
Not all Linux file managers are created equal. Some file managers have more bells and whistles than the average user will ever need, while other file managers are as inflexible as cold, hard steel. There are also those that ship with a bare minimum of features but allow users to extend the feature set with add-ons.
Given how we so often take the file manager for granted, once you find a feature that could really make your daily life a bit more efficient, you realize just how important the tool is. Such is the case with the GNOME File Manager. Out of the box, it works great and includes enough features to get you by for a while. Eventually, however, you’ll find some features that could make things a bit easier.
One such feature is the ability to open files with sudo privilege without having to jump through extra hoops.
Let me set the stage for you. As it ships, to open a file with sudo privileges, you have to do the following:
That’s a bit extra. And when you’re having to do this over and over throughout the day, it can become a serious waste of time.

Fortunately, there’s a way to add an Edit as Administrator entry to the Files right-click context menu, so you don’t have to go through all of those steps. The one caveat to this is that if you’re opening text files, it will open in the default Gedit — or GNOME Text, depending on which version of GNOME you’re using — GUI application.
If you prefer editing such files in the terminal window, the more cumbersome route is still your best bet. But for those who want more efficiency out of their file manager, let’s fix this glaring omission.
The only things you’ll need to make this work are a running instance of any Debian-based Linux distribution that uses the GNOME file manager and a user with sudo privileges. The one caveat to this is that there is no way to do this on an RHEL-based distribution such as Fedora without using a tool like beesu, which allows you to open the file manager with sudo privileges and doesn’t make the process any more efficient.
With that said, let’s get this up and running on my go-to Linux distribution, Pop!_OS.
Before we add this extension, please use it with caution. Once you’ve installed this tool, you make it easier for other people to open important configuration files with ease. Do this only if you trust those who’ll be using your desktop.
With that out of the way, log in to your desktop and open a terminal. From that window, issue the command:sudo apt-get install nautilus-admin -y
Once the installation completes, restart Nautilus with the command:nautilus -q
Open Nautilus and navigate to a file you want to open that requires root access, such as /etc/samba/smb.conf. Right-click that file and you should now see a new entry in the Nautilus aka GNOME Files context menu, named Edit As Administrator (Figure A).
Figure A
After typing your user’s sudo password, the Gedit — or whatever GUI text editor you’ve set as your default — will open the file with write permissions. Edit the file as needed, save it and you’re done.
Thanks to this handy addition to the GNOME File Manager, your work day can be made considerably easier. Give nautilus-admin a try and see if you don’t quickly come to depend on the newly-added feature.

Tesla shares sink in early trade after the EV maker posted disappointing results
(Reuters) – Canada Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Wednesday the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act impacts Canada and that Ottawa was working on new measures to respond to the legislation.
"You will see some of that (new measures) in the fall economic statement and you'll see further action in the budget in the spring," Freeland told reporters in Windsor, Ontario.
"This is a far reaching piece of legislation with a lot of different consequences for Canada and we are really, really focused on it," she said.

Nwosu: Robust Records Strategy Will Create Paper-lite Economy – THISDAY Newspapers
Chief Executive Officer, Secured Records Management Solutions, Dr. Sam Nwosu, speaks on the need for organisations to embrace robust records management strategy in order to reduce operational costs and loss of valuable records. Emma Okonji presents the excerpts:
Secured Records recently launched its second document archiving warehouse in Abuja. What informed the second launch?
As the foremost provider of end-to-end document management services in Nigeria, Abuja off-site document warehouse is positioned to improve our operations and extend our service footprint outside Lagos. As a growing company, we needed to extend the archiving services in regions other than Lagos, and Abuja was the best choice for the second warehouse, considering the high demand and need for the service. With a thriving clientele in Abuja, it became necessary for the federal capital territory to enjoy the excellent archiving service that we offer elsewhere. We are confident this will address the physical archiving needs of our clients as well as open the doors for potential clients.
Like our Lagos document warehouse, the Abuja Physical archiving facility has all essential world-class features to ensure confidentiality, safety, security, and document preservation. All physical documents are systematically and methodically stored in archival boxes and placed on storage racks with external labels, QR-codes for easy identification and retrieval. Our document warehouses come with the following features: climate controlled system, state-of-the-art racking system built to international standard, color-coded (QR codes) for secured and easy identification of client boxes, automated and customised inventory software, fire suppression system, alarm system for anti-burglary and theft, live CCTV surveillance, strict access to only authorised agents, and managed by experiences personnel.
Through the expansion, we strive to reinforce our commitment to offering comprehensive range of services including digital archiving, data warehousing, workforce automation, and customised software development.
With two document archiving warehouses in Lagos and Abuja, how will you describe the demand for document archiving in Nigeria. Is there likely going to be a third warehouse from Secured Records anytime soon?
Several factors drive the demand for document archiving in Nigeria when taking a holistic market review. This suggests that even after complete digitalisation, organisations are still saddled with the responsibility of keeping their physical documents throughout the retention period. The big question is: where should they keep those documents to ensure proper preservation as well as safety and security. Organisations are also actively seeking ways to reduce the time and cost of managing documents efficiently and effectively. In summary, these factors can influence the existence of a business, ensuring business continuity.
In today’s digital world, there is a shift in operations, especially post-covid, when many companies are adjusting to the new management reality in a world controlled by technology, among other reasons. Digital archiving has become increasingly popular for managing documents and increasing turnaround time. Despite the new reality, physical document archiving still has a healthy market: identifying what type of organiations still work with physical documents, why they do so, how they currently manage the process, and their location will help us understand how these organisations use documents today. We have visited clients with a heap of bags containing legacy documents occupying dedicated and sometimes, expensive workspaces.
Various organizations maintain these print records for different reasons, and according to regulations, organisations operating in diverse sectors are to retain certain documents for a particular period. Financial institutions, law firms, oil and gas companies, pension managers, and schools are a few examples.
Google search trends for relevant document archiving keywords over the past five years suggest that companies from Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt are constantly looking for document archiving services.
Secured Records is open to launching more document warehouses in areas where we are able to determine high levels of demand, in line with our mission to be the foremost provider of end-to-end document management and secured software solutions in Africa.
The world is going digital in line with global digital transformation. How will you advise organisations that still practice paper-based documentation?
For organisations that still practice paper-based documentation, we typically share two views: Firstly is to help them understand the time and secondly, the monetary cost of managing a paper-based documentation system.
According to Gartner research, companies spend as much as three per cent of their revenue on paper. Included here is the cost of procuring the paper, before you get to the cost of printing and filing documents. Beyond this point, an organisation will deal with the logistic costs of managing the documents, including moving, storing, and disposing of documents, at the end of their retention periods.
With the retrieval or tracking of documents being a major challenge in most public and private sector organisations, we suggest the deployment of an Electronic Content Management (ECM) for managing documents in digital format and simplifying the document flow process to ensuring that documents are easy to retrieve, and tracked in a manner that ensures integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity.
Quite often we hear news of organisations experiencing calamities, ranging from floods and fires to hard drive crashes, which destroy their records with disastrous consequences for their business operations. The reality is that many organisations assume they will never experience such disaster, so never develop a plan for protecting one of their most valuable assets: records.
However, disasters do happen, and forward-thinking organisations are now actively putting in place a robust records management strategy to significantly reduce the impact, in terms of loss of valuable records and attendant costs.
To mitigate potential losses due to human errors, the necessity for automated workflow needs not be over-emphasised. With proper records management practice, an organisation can work from anywhere, realise significant cost reduction in running operations, improve response time, achieve accuracy, enhance productivity, and attain operational efficiency.
For organisations that have sensitive supply chains, where there are many moving parts interacting with one another, resilience and agility are necessary to adapt to changes on the fly. Physical document archiving is ideal when managing legacy records, that is, documents that are not consulted on a daily basis, but need to be preserved due to retention policies. For instance, the Nigerian court system still works with physical documents. Financial Auditors still tend to work with physical copies of relevant records so in cases like these, it become necessary to store physical documents in safe and secured facilities.
At Secured Records, we advise customers to digitize document backlogs, implement electronic content management for retrieval of digitized records, automation of repetitive manual processes to facilitate where from anywhere program, and store physical paper documents in a safe and secured facility for preservation and ease of retrieval when needed.
As technology develops faster than imagined, do you see Nigeria becoming a paper-lite nation anytime soon?
There are various factors to be considered when looking at becoming a paperless or paper-lite nation, and all centred on the peculiarities of the country.
Let’s start by looking at the public sector with most Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs) still heavily reliant on paper-based operations. Courts for example, still depend on physical documentation records to operate. Businesses in other states still need to send hard copy documents to government organisations in Abuja and or their state counterparts.
In a lot of cases, there exists some internal resistance to change, combined with exogenous factors, which historically have frustrated such efforts in the past.
There are also concerns that paperless architecture may lead to load-shading, meaning that people may lose their jobs. I frown at this particular concern because similar arguments were put forward during the first and second industrial revolutions, where people were concerned about the potential job losses due to industrialization. Admittedly, jobs were lost, but many more lucrative jobs were created. Let us remember that people are still needed to scan documents and push them to the electronic records management platform, which serves as a repository and automation engine.
Notwithstanding these obstacles, so many government officials have demonstrated propensity to digitally transform their organisations. For us, it all started in 2019 when the Minister of Finance, Budget, and National Planning, Dr. Zaynab Ahmed commissioned a pilot to test the viability of our electronic records management (ERM) as a starting point to achieving paperless-paper-lite ministry. She has since extended the program to include digitization of millions of records, deployment of electronic records management platform, mapping and automation of several manual processes, and tracking of all inbound and outbound documents. At the middle of COVID-19 pandemic, the Head of Service of the Federation, Dr Folasade Yemi-Esan, sent a circular to all MDAs to digitize and automate their processes to ensuring business continuity, operational efficiency, and productivity of the federal civil service. Others include the DG, Budget Office of the Federation, Comptroller-General of Nigerian Immigration Service, DG, NOSDRA, MD, Development Bank of Nigeria, ES, PTAD, Chairman of EFCC, and DG, Tetfund.
Today all manual processes at the Head of Service headquarters have been digitally mapped and are being automated. So I remain optimistic that with increasing interest and momentum from Heads of MDAs, more release of funds by the federal government, and a boost from the private sector industry captains like AIG Foundation, Nigeria will someday soon achieve Paper-lite workplace operations, and perhaps, reach paperless communications in a few years.
There is no doubt that the private sector is ahead of the public sector in adopting digital transformation. The pace was accelerated by the devastating impact of COVID-10 as many organisations were forced to lock down operations and not able to work from anywhere outside the corridors of their offices. I am aware that many private sector organizations are making efforts to transition to digital platforms, but several others are still heavily dependent on paper forms for their day-to-day operations. That said, I am optimistic about a paperless Nigeria.
In terms of capacity, how long will it take Secured Records to complete archiving of organisation’s document?
Good question. The answer to this question depends of several variables including the volume, the nature, and the retrieval mechanism. For digital archiving, we are capable of converting, indexing, classifying, and uploading of over 250,000 pages of documents per day, provided the customer provides adequate space. We come prepared with our staff, scanners, laptops, and all necessary equipment to complete the process. For the provision of electronic content management software, it could take just a few days. The process mapping and automation may take a few days to a few months depending on the number of manual processes to be mapped and automated. For physical archiving (off-site document storage), the implementation timeline once again depends on the complexity of sorting, data capturing, file planning, proximity from customer site to our warehouse, and the number of boxes to be stored.
I can unequivocally say that we are favourably disposed in providing end-to-end document management solutions – be it in digital imagery or physical configurations, and we have the capacity to scale up to meet the desired archival needs of our existing and potential customers.
Aside from creating more workspace, what are the other benefits of physical and digital document archiving?
Both digital and physical archiving, provide easy way to track, retrieve, and, manage documents, as well as ensuring documents retention compliance. This reduces the burden associated with time-wasting tasks of searching and retrieval, especially when working with tight deadlines.
Specifically, the following benefits are associated with physical archiving: (also known as off-site records management): safeguarding of documents from the risk of fire, flood, and destructive pests, spending minutes instead of hours or days in locating documents, protecting confidential documents from unauthorized access, ensuring business continuity as a backup to digital documentation, stands as the ultimate source of truth when digital information stored becomes questionable, and finally, ensuring document retention compliance.
For digital archiving, the benefits include: hedging against destructive incidents such as fire and flood, reduction in time and efforts in locating documents, reduction in cost of paper and all related paper-based filing, increase in productivity as a result of elimination of time-wasting efforts, and of course, enabling people to work from anywhere outside their primary places of work.
In the case of a fire outbreak, what is the best technology to store and retrieve physical and digital documents?
For physical documents, storing records in a controlled environment that is equipped with fire detection and suppression technology is the most ideal way to suppress and terminate a fire. What makes it a controlled environment is the fact that there are no electric circuits in the records management center, and this helps minimize the risk of electrical-induced fire outbreaks. The facility is equipped with FM200 fire suppression system, which automatically releases Co2 to put out the fire when smoke is detected or during fire outbreaks. Smoke detectors and nozzles are strategically positioned across the warehouse. There are thunder arrestors on the roof of the warehouse as a further measure against first incidents. Furthermore, CCTV is hooked to an inverter, which gets its power source from sola panelsr. The CCYV is monitored remotely and with security guards mounted 24×7, any incident of fire outbreak, which is highly unlikely, will be detected and quenched immediately.
For digital documents, Cloud-based technology such as ECM/EDMS will be more than enough to keep digital documents safe from fires. Unlike physical hard disk drives, once documents are uploaded into the cloud, they can be accessed from another location with the document owner’s credentials even if the office space where the digital document originates from is destroyed by fire. This is further strengthened by the provision of a disaster recovery site, which mirror data and provide backups and redundancies in case of a disaster.
Nigeria is entering into election year in 2023. How will you advise leaders to leverage technology in governance?
Embracing technology in governance will help improve accountability, productivity, efficiency, and transparency in all government operation, including in the conducts of elections.
The Electoral Act, signed into law by the president on February 25, 2022, will bring about significant changes to the Electoral Act that will affect the electoral process, specifically the use of technology and technology-enabled processes that will improve efficiency and transparency. Though I am not a lawyer, but I remember reading about some innovative sections of the Act that support the use of card readers, electronic voter authentication, and maintaining records in electronic and manual formats, as well as any other voter authentication technology deployed by INEC for conducting a transparent, effective, credible, and fair election.
Through these provisions, the commission can automate tasks using technology-enabled tools such as advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for typed records and Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) for hand-written records for classification and characterisation, process automation using an Electronic Document Management System (EDMS), and data processing tools such as database management, optical scanning, and geographic information systems.
Elections can be conducted using technology in several ways, one of these ways is using electronic technology (E-Voting) to cast or count votes. E-voting has many advantages, including increasing participation among the youths and making elections more accessible to people with disabilities. As part of our ongoing commitment to the country’s continued progress, we are at the forefront of an end-to-end technology-driven service offerings. To restore trust in the election process and reduce turnaround times, the government must strictly adhere to the provisions of the Act.
The federal government is insisting that all MDAs must be Digitized. What is your take on this?
We believe this is a welcome development and a move in the right direction. We’ are happy to be a part of this transformative and game-changing initiative, and we believe this will be a catalyst to improve the operational efficiency of our MDAs. Already, there are early benefits for some MDAs we have worked with to digitize their processes. These benefits include improved manpower efficiency, improved accountability, improved transparency and communication. Information security is not left out as there are layers of access control to manage the digitized documents or electronic assets as we sometimes call them.
We have worked with some ministries in the past to digitize their document assets. This move is also environmentally friendly and in line with global climate protection policies.
Can you list some of your solutions and how robust are they in protecting organization’s documents?
In terms of document management, our bespoke warehouse management solution, which is focused on managing documents at our offsite records management facility was designed to assist clients in tracking their documents and retrieve them with ease.
Its features include an inventory tracker, an approval workflow for retrieving documents, and an archive reporting system.
The software assists in protecting the documents of organisations in the context of only approved individuals who can access the software to see what documents are stored in our facility and make retrievals, and even then, they would require approvals before documents can be retrieved.
Secured Records engineering team will continue releasing updates on the software, which are focused on expanding its functionality and benefits as well as security improvements. We also have several new products currently in development that we are excited about and we will be announcing more on this soon to the general public.

What Is Microsoft SharePoint? 4 Features and Benefits of Using It – MUO – MakeUseOf
Microsoft SharePoint is a collaboration and file management tool that helps your professional and personal productivity. Here’s what you need to know!
A Microsoft 365 subscription gives you access to many productivity tools. The most intuitive, intelligent, and customizable one is SharePoint. A staggering 190 million people in more than 200,000 organizations of different sizes use SharePoint.
SharePoint can easily save time by eliminating the need for multiple tasks and project management apps. Eventually, you can invest more time to grow your professional career, freelance clients, or side hustles.
SharePoint is an online content management tool. It enables you to store files in the cloud for sharing and collaborative work. It can help you create sites and subsites to declutter tasks from different teams or individuals.
SharePoint allows you to create an intranet where you, your collaborators, and freelance clients securely work on a file or document. A centralized admin will control accesses so that each user can seamlessly open, edit, and save files.
SharePoint has many advanced functionalities that help you or your team in managing professional and personal works. The followings are some of the most frequently-used actions:
SharePoint works as a safe haven for all creative files such as app codes, graphic designs, audio clips, videos, website articles, invoices, etc. SharePoint offers other tools like data analysis, website templates, knowledge base templates, and project management workflows.
Therefore, its scope of use ranges from an individual content creator to large businesses. Many freelance professionals or small groups of creative individuals use SharePoint in different stages of software, mobile app, website, or content development projects.
The web-based SharePoint tool that comes with Microsoft 365 subscription is a robust yet simple productivity tool. The widely-used features that make it one of the best task and project management tools are:
SharePoint is a highly flexible and scalable platform for collaboration with internal or external resources. A central admin user can assign different levels of access permission to individual users of team sites.
You and your team can work on a single file in a real-time scenario without facing any latency. Therefore, many creative developers and content creators prefer SharePoint for teaming up for any project.
A significant function of SharePoint collaboration is to keep flowing decluttered information throughout the sites and subsites. It helps individuals stay updated about the project without going through multiple emails, missed chats, video calls, etc.
Content management is a big challenge for any individual or group of professionals that want to deliver better productivity. SharePoint enables you to get past this challenge without going through complex programming.
Content managers can easily take care of multiple projects simultaneously on SharePoint. Publishing or updating website contents like events, news, blogs, presentation stacks, image carousels, etc., made easy with SharePoint.
You don’t have to start every content management project from scratch. There are ready-to-use professional templates that you can use. Apart from the content, you’re in total control of its versions. SharePoint creates and saves multiple versions of the file on which you or your team works upon.
When in need, you can recall any previous versions or fix any files system errors from SharePoint. You don’t need to depend on any third-party tools to backup, restore, or fix files.
SharePoint has a range of functionalities that you can leverage for task and project management. The most evident function is that the tool functions as centralized storage for all project-related documents and deliverable files.
You can also customize the SharePoint sites in many ways. These tailor-made sites could serve you as a daily planner, weekly task scheduler, and FAQs for tasks. Furthermore, for project documentation and performance review purposes, you can activate time logging features as mentioned below:
SharePoint also enables you to create a workflow to streamline tasks like task handover, sign-off project deliverables, approvals, presenting a demo, and client feedback.
SharePoint integrates with most Microsoft 365 apps to offer you a seamless user interface for project management. SharePoint works as a central repository of your project data, whereas other Microsoft 365 apps make it easy for you to manage tasks and resources.
You can sync SharePoint with tools like To-Do, Tasks, Planner, and Project Online for specialized approaches. You can generate reports to present project insights to your freelance clients.
SharePoint syncs with your Outlook and Calendar profile to organize tasks and schedules so that you can prioritize your work. Similarly, publish your SharePoint team sites in the Teams app to access contacts, files, tasks, etc., from Teams.
SharePoint also has the ability to integrate PowerPoint, Video, Stream, OneDrive to preview files and documents within the SharePoint sites or subsites. You save time by avoiding mundane tasks like downloading files from SharePoint to make PowerPoint slides.
SharePoint offers many benefits when comparing with any other productivity tool for project or content management. Some of its advantages are:
You may already be paying for it through Microsoft 365 subscription. Avoid unnecessary spending on apps and tools by using SharePoint as the primary productivity tool for professional or personal needs.
Governments and big organizations trust the SharePoint ecosystem with their sensitive data. So, you can store your creative work on SharePoint for collaborative work without any fear of intellectual property theft.
The scalability of the tool allows you to budget your cost towards productivity tools. If you see an inflow of too many projects from different clients, you can change the subscription to accommodate more resources and projects. When projects ease off, you can switch to low-paid plans.
A higher level of flexibility and multipurpose utility means that you can keep using SharePoint as the chief productivity tool while you keep changing your roles or creative skills. You can use a template when one project ends, and you need to start another one. You can minimize the budget by avoiding multiple app purchases.
SharePoint’s features make it an elaborate project management tool rather than a simple cloud solution for file sharing and storage. By using SharePoint and other Microsoft 365 apps to manage your professional or personal tasks, you create a domino effect of ever-increasing productivity.

May. 19, 2022
The Neat Company, a provider of small business bookkeeping automation and document management, has added new capabilities to its financial management platform. Neat now gives small business owners even more options with respect to exporting their financial data, and more capabilities available through its mobile app.
Since its initial launch in 2021, Neat’s all-in-one financial management platform continues to reimagine how small business bookkeeping is accomplished and enables small business owners – with years doing their own bookkeeping or with no accounting expertise at all – to quickly and confidently manage their books and keep business finances in order. The all-encompassing Neat platform helps small business owners simplify the process of organizing and automating their small business bookkeeping, invoicing, and document management.
“When I was a small business owner, I saw firsthand how bookkeeping can seem like a distraction, and learned that traditional small business accounting software can feel overwhelming while homegrown spreadsheets were both limiting and time-consuming,” explains Garrett Baird, President & CEO of The Neat Company. “Neat recognized that, too, and has condensed and clarified the bookkeeping process into an uncomplicated and easy-to-use all-in-one platform designed specifically for small businesses.”
With these latest enhancements, The Neat Company continues to simplify small business bookkeeping by making Neat even more user-friendly, intuitive, and versatile. “Our new enhancements give business owners without advanced accounting knowledge the ability to manage their books wherever they are and get back to the work of growing their businesses instead of struggling with record-keeping and complex interfaces,” Baird added.
Key new capabilities added to Neat include:
These Neat enhancements are in support of The Neat Company’s mission to deliver a holistic, all-in-one financial management software experience for its customers. The new enhancements are just some examples of what the product team works to develop and refine every day.
Neat is priced at $288 for an annual subscription ($24/month) or $29 month to month with a 30-day money back guarantee. Try Neat for free for 15 days at www.neat.com.

Microsoft SharePoint – TechTarget
Microsoft SharePoint is a document management and collaboration platform that helps a company manage archives, documents, reports and other content that is vital to its business processes. SharePoint’s enterprise content management capabilities are helpful to organizations in all industries and in any department within an organization.
SharePoint is configured using a web browser. It provides most of its capabilities via a web user interface (UI) and web applications. SharePoint is used to manipulate content and site structure, create and delete sites, enable and disable product features, configure basic workflows and manage analytics.
SharePoint 2019 is the latest version of the application. SharePoint is part of the Office 365 suite, where it is known as SharePoint Online. Microsoft also offers an on-premises version for organizations that prefer to keep their data in-house for compliance or security reasons.
Notable features in SharePoint include:
SharePoint 2016 was focused on traditional document management. With SharePoint 2019, Microsoft eliminated some collaboration, social media and enterprise search functions that are now included in Office 365. Those functions include the following:
Microsoft is focusing much of its development roadmap on SharePoint Online. However, it will continue to release on-premises versions because customers may have compliance requirements that require maintaining certain data on premises or because they cannot migrate all their data to the cloud.
Other features that were removed from the SharePoint 2016 server include the following:
The following features were deprecated or removed in SharePoint Server 2019:
SharePoint 2019 includes architectural deployment models that were introduced with SharePoint 2016 as part of Microsoft’s move to make SharePoint a cloud-first offering. Microsoft said with SharePoint 2019, it aimed to improve many of the cloud-first technologies introduced in 2016.
For example, SharePoint 2013 and previous editions relied on service deployments to patch problem servers. SharePoint 2016 had MinRole, a streamlined topology that has a server in a SharePoint farm that runs an explicit set of services based on its role and has no other services turned on. This enables more flexibility, easy fixes and quick updates to each server resulting in faster and more reliable service. SharePoint uses the MinRole farm topology in SharePoint Server 2019 and Online.
At their core, SharePoint’s architectural deployment models are largely the same as when they were introduced in 2016. There are four architectural models for SharePoint 2019.
SharePoint Online. SharePoint is delivered using a software-as-a-service subscription model. Microsoft provides updates automatically, but customers are responsible for SharePoint management.
SharePoint on premises. Customers maintain control over all the planning, deployments, maintenance and customizations of their SharePoint environments within their own data centers.
SharePoint has existed in one form or another since 2001. It has grown to more than 200 million users within 250,000 organizations. There have been nine SharePoint versions released since 2001, with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise being the first enterprise-based offering.
Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 was launched in 2010 with close integration with Microsoft Office and Active Directory. The benefits of SharePoint 2010 included the ability to quickly develop and build websites without programming knowledge. Such websites could be used to manage collaboration tools such as document libraries, discussion boards, shared task lists, shared calendars, blogs, wikis and surveys.
SharePoint 2013 was released as a collaboration platform for customized webpages in November 2012.
The initial release of SharePoint 2013 offered a simplified user experience, as well as new enterprise social media capabilities. Those features expanded upon previously offered capabilities for website management, including shared calendars, blogs, wikis, surveys, document libraries and shared task lists.
SharePoint 2013 also launched with a community forum for users to communicate with each other and categorize discussions. It included a microblogging capability and enhanced search capabilities, as well as e-discovery functionality, claims-based authentication and mobile support. The BI tools in SharePoint 2013 enabled users to organize goals and processes and create customizable data models, reports and dashboards.
SharePoint Server 2016 has the same code as SharePoint Online. As a result, on-premises customers have the same support and performance capabilities for their SharePoint server farms thanks to a few architecture changes.
SharePoint 2019 is the latest version. It brings more cloud-based features to the SharePoint Server and hybrid architecture types of the application.
While Microsoft SharePoint is a market leader in document collaboration and management, many other cloud-based competitors have entered the market, including Box, Dropbox and Google Drive. Beyond document management, the collaboration software industry has grown, with new players gaining traction, including Salesforce Slack and Chatter and Aurea Jive.
In response, in 2017, Microsoft released its own collaboration tool, Teams, to complement SharePoint 2016. Teams is still used in conjunction with SharePoint today. Vendors such as Sitecore, Atlassian Confluence and WordPress all compete with SharePoint in the web content management market.
SharePoint integrates with a number of different collaboration tools. However, some businesses may find alternatives more useful, especially for easier migration to the cloud. Learn 7 alternatives to Microsoft SharePoint.
