list de contact

Hello, I am looking to make a sharepoint page for my intranet with a detailed contact list of certain customers/suppliers.

(First Name/ LAst Name/address/phone/mail/web site...)

 

I therefore tried to create contacts in the global outlook notebook but
when I insert a contact, only the list of members of my organization appears. moreover I only see the first and last name, email address and no other info.

 

is it possible to have a contact list with all the info?

 

Thanks

  • Step 1. Create a Contacts App in SharePoint

    Go to SharePoint site you would like to add the list of contacts to. Click on the gear icon in the top right and select “Add an app”.
    Select “Contacts” and give your Contacts app a name. Once it has been created, you can start adding contacts.

    Step 2. Manage permissions

    Permissions for the contact list will be managed like any other object in SharePoint. You can choose to let it inherit permissions from the site the contact list is located in, or your can chose to break inheritance and customize it for your needs.

    Depending on the purpose of the shared contacts list, it might be best practice to restrict who can edit and add contacts to a small number of a people while giving everyone else access to see them.

    Here are instructions on how to manage permissions in SharePoint.

    Step 3. Add Contacts Folder to Outlook

    Each user will need to add the new contacts folder to their Outlook client. First, open SharePoint and navigate to the Contacts list. In SharePoint, expand the “List” tab in the ribbon and select “Connect to Outlook”.

    You will be asked to allow the website to open a program on your computer. Click “Allow”. When Outlook prompts “Connect this SharePoint Contacts List to Outlook?”, click “Yes”. You will then see the contacts list under “Other Contacts” in the People window of the Outlook client aplikasi.

      Thank you for your answer, not all my users have a license, so I did it differently, I used the list system, and it seems to meet my needs. Thank you for your help.
