About Project
IConflux partnered on a project that required a secure, scalable, and structured workflow management solution. The objective was to develop a customized platform that could support dynamic form processes, hierarchical approvals, and recurring updates across teams and departments.
By leveraging Microsoft SharePoint and React, IConflux delivered a robust, user-centric system that enhanced data management, ensured smoother communication, and streamlined operations.
The Problem
The client was using Microsoft SharePoint for internal workflows, but growing operational needs highlighted
several challenges:
Rigid System Restrictions:
SharePoint's default role and permission system made it difficult to meet complex user requirements within a single workflow.
Limited Workflow Flexibility:
Approval paths were hard-coded and couldn’t adapt easily to new hierarchies or evolving form structures.
User Experience Gaps:
The default SharePoint UI wasn’t intuitive, especially for non-technical users, resulting in slower task completion.
Lack of Email Triggers:
Users weren’t promptly notified via email when they needed to take action, such as initiating, reviewing, or approving forms.
The client needed a solution that could overcome these constraints and support a more
agile, user-friendly workflow system.
Project Goal
The goal was to build a custom platform integrated with SharePoint and enhanced with a React-based interface to:
Enable multi-level, adaptable approval workflows
Support frequent form revisions without workflow disruption
Send timely, trigger-based email notifications to users
Deliver an intuitive user experience for all levels of users
Maintain data alignment across user roles and organizational hierarchy
Solutions Offered
IConflux took a modular and scalable approach to development, customizing SharePoint and integrating
modern technologies:
Custom Role and Permission Layer:
Developed a tailored system to define and manage user access independently from SharePoint's default setup.
Dynamic Workflow Engine:
Enabled admins to restructure workflows on the go, based on changing form logic or hierarchy—without backend rewrites.
React-Based Frontend:
Delivered a modern, responsive user interface that minimized friction and improved engagement for end users.
Integrated Email Notifications:
Implemented trigger-based email alerts for actions like form initiation, submission, approval, or rejection to enhance accountability and reduce delays.
People Picker Integration:
Integrated a dynamic People Picker that pulls supervisor data directly from the SharePoint directory, allowing users to easily assign and select relevant personnel.
Discussion & Audit Trail:
Within the Request Listing module, added a “Discussion” section that captures all interactions (approvals, rejections, comments), enabling complete transparency.
Team Member Visibility:
Introduced a feature allowing supervisors to add team members with view-only access to ongoing requests, ensuring transparency and alignment.
Key Features
Multi-Step Approval Workflow:
Adaptable flow logic that accommodates different approval paths per form type.
Dynamic Role Assignment:
Roles based on department or responsibility could be adjusted as needed without system downtime.
Modern UI Layer:
Form changes could be pushed live without disrupting workflows already in progress.
Form Update Flexibility:
Form changes could be pushed live without disrupting workflows already in progress.
Email Triggers:
Users received notification emails at each stage—form creation, submission, and approval—to keep processes moving.
Real-Time Audit Trail:
The “Discussion” feature tracked and displayed all actions related to each request for all authorized users.

Measurable Outcomes
The deployment of the customized SharePoint-React solution led to several measurable outcomes:
50% Reduction in Workflow Delays:
Introduced a feature allowing supervisors to add team members with view-only access to ongoing requests, ensuring transparency and alignment.
30% Increase in Administrative Efficiency:
Staff could complete form-based tasks with less dependency on IT teams, thanks to self-service features and dynamic settings.
Seamless Form Management:
With the ability to update forms without disrupting the system, the client was able to stay compliant with evolving protocols.
Higher User Satisfaction:
End-users reported greater ease of use and fewer errors during form completion and approvals.
Improved Team Coordination
View-only access and transparent communication features helped teams stay aligned without information silos.
By transforming SharePoint’s rigid infrastructure into a flexible, user-first workflow solution, IConflux delivered a system that adapts to evolving operational needs. With a dynamic React interface, email-triggered alerts, and simplified user management, the platform empowers users while ensuring data integrity and streamlined operations.
