Document Sets vs Folders in SPO
Thanks for your input! really appreciate valuable methods on how other professionals are tackling information management within SPO.
I think everyone on this thread is onboard with the value of DocSets and Metadata. My question is how people have been addressing for a good Information Architecture. Mainly because SPO recommended site structures are hub and team sites.
The site collection you're migrating, are there subsites along with it?
Will you migrate those subsites in to their own team site?
If so how will you maintain columns (for examples choices, so that they are consistent across all sites)?
Thanks again
keviseeI'm not migrating anything now, but when i did, i first sorted out the mess on the source (on prem), gave each departmental site collection a webapp of its own, just so i could manage the customization one-by-one, then i migrated a webappp (which was now a departmental site only) to a teamsite on 365, and i was able to retain all the list columns and content type (but those became local to that teamsite), which worked like a charm (ofcource nintex played up a little).
Although there is no need for us to have new content types right away, however when the need comes, now it will be evaluated if the reqmt for new content type is to make it a global ct or local ct, if later it will happen on the teamsite level, but if global, then its going to be a challenge to sync that.
