Creating internal parts order system in sharepoint
Hi,
I want to create a relative simple internal part ordering system in sharepoint. Which should look as follows.
I have a list of parts. The list itself has some columns like part number, article number, a picture, ....
From this list I want to able to select 1 (or if possible more items). This items should be send via email to our warehouse.
I implemented it with a simple flow as an intermediate solution where you can just change the status of one field and this triggers a flow with approval and an email to the warehouse afterwards. but I want to bring some more "spice" into it.
My ideal world would look like the technician (orderer) can select an item.
This item will show up in a new list where additional comments can be added
You could be able to remove items from this list if you have missselection or change number of needed items and so on.
Basically a shopping basket function.
At the end you should be able to "order" it.
Is this doable? How?
Thanks for your comments.

As per my opinion you can use SharePoint online list for managing the list Items.Using SharePoint workflow make business logic for delete the items or moving items in basket or another order list.
Hope this helps!!
Thanks

Thanks All..
I will try to go PowerApps. Which seem pretty straight forward. Hope to get this sorted.
Is someone already really familiar with PowerApps?
Is it possible to create a "list" on sharepoint out of powerApps? Or can I only work on already existing lists?
- DeletedNo actions out of the box, there might be some form of HTTP call rigging you could do but I wouldn't recommend it. Why would you want to have a bunch of lists created? Doesn't seem the logical way of going about something and could get messy very fast.
- DeletedTake a look at Powerapps and SharePoint integration. It's launching any week now. This would be the ideal solution IMO for something like this.
Laura Rogers has tons of Powerhours going over Flow and Powerapp stuff. Highly recommend. Also check for Flow and PowerApp Ignite sessions, they talk and show alot of the integration coming as well.
