employee directory

Hi,

 

on our intranet (modern sharepoint site) we'd like to have an employee directory.

i showed delve to my management but they don't like the fact that there are all files and other infos showing up as well.

 

is there a way to have a simple "who's who" ? i checked and found ways to create it with custom pages but not on modern pages...

 

any advise ? :)

  • Hi matthieu2906,

     

    There is excellent people and organization information in Office 365, with Contact Cards, Delve, Teams etc., but nothing "out of the box" with SharePoint will meet your needs. A 3rd party web part or custom solution would be in order.

     

    If you are going custom, I think the SharePoint list formatting samples on GitHub are interesting - especially the User Profile Card.

     

    I hope this helps.

    Are you using Teams?  If you hover over a person and get their contact card, there is an org chart icon - click to bring up the organization tab with a simple org chart.

     

    You can also use /who in the command bar to find out information about a person and find the org chart

      teresa baxmeyeryes we start to use Teams but the idea was to have a link to an employee directory on the intranet it self (which is on sharepoint).

       

      Maybe i'm old fashion ;)

        matthieu2906 You are not 🙂 

        I could see, this might help, I see HR365 SharePoint Employee Directory, which is on SPFX platform, you can use free if users are upto 50, it is available as MS Teams app too. Here is a link for your reference https://www.hr365.us/sharepoint-employee-directory/

      HiNorman Young 

       

      I tried this one. It works well.

       

      I want to add an option like 'People' web part. When we point the user card, it can appear in her/his detail. I attached the image file also.

      (We have 1000 of the employee directory. People's web part doesn't have a pagination option. )


      Any idea of creating a large number of employee directory ?!

       

      Hope your kind attention.

       

      Thanks & Regards

      Shrinika

      I want to know how to do this pop-up dialog box.

      Norman is correct...your choices here are build your custom employee directory or use a third party one
