PNM Special Task Force SharePoint Guide
Audience: Members of the PNM Special Task Force. Office staff handle site setup, membership, permissions, and changes to the SharePoint home page.
Your Two PNM Tools
| Tool | Use it for | Link |
|---|---|---|
| PNMSTG mailing list | Emailing everyone in the task force | PNMSTG@sandiahomeowners.org |
| PNM SharePoint site | Storing and working on task-force documents | Open PNM SharePoint |
What Committee Members Can Do
PNMSTG members have read/write access to the Documents library. You may:
- Open and download documents
- Create folders
- Upload files
- Create new Word, Excel, or PowerPoint files
- Edit and rename files
- Move files within the Documents library
- Delete files that should no longer be kept
Deleting or moving a file affects everyone, so please ask before reorganizing material that may be part of the task-force record.
What Office Staff Handle
Committee members do not need to administer the SharePoint site. Contact office staff if you need:
- A person added to or removed from the task force
- A change to the SharePoint home page or navigation
- A permissions change
- Help recovering or reorganizing files
The committee chair does not need an @sandiahomeowners.org account and does not need site-owner access to work with documents.
How To Open The Documents
- Open https://shha.sharepoint.com/sites/PNMSTG.
- Sign in using the same email address that received your SHHA Microsoft invitation.
- Select Documents.
- Open the folder you need.
If Microsoft sends a one-time passcode to your email, use that code to finish signing in.
How To Add A File
- Open Documents and the correct folder.
- Select Upload → Files.
- Choose the file from your computer.
- Wait for the upload to finish and confirm the file appears.
To create a file directly in SharePoint, select New and choose Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Folder.
How To Edit, Move, Or Delete A File
- Select the file using the circle beside its name, or right-click the file.
- Choose Open, Rename, Move to, or Delete.
- Use Move to when reorganizing files. Do not download and re-upload just to move a file.
Documents Shared With Board
Use the Documents Shared with Board folder for enduring reference material that Board members may need later, such as procedures, legal analyses, project background, charters, or other non-public reference documents.
Do not let useful background disappear into an old email thread. If future Board members may need it, this is probably its home.
OneDrive Shortcut: Internal And External Users
If You Have An SHHA Microsoft Account
Internal users with an @sandiahomeowners.org account can open the SharePoint Documents library and select Add shortcut to OneDrive. The folder then appears under My files in OneDrive.
If You Use Gmail, Yahoo, Or Another Personal Address
Microsoft does not support adding this SharePoint shortcut to an external user's OneDrive. Bookmark the PNM SharePoint site in your browser and open files there.
How To Share A File With The Task Force
Put the file in the PNM SharePoint Documents library, then email PNMSTG@sandiahomeowners.org with the file name and folder location.
If Something Does Not Work
Contact office staff or ITHelp@sandiahomeowners.org. Include:
- The email address you used to sign in
- The page or folder you were trying to open
- The exact error message
- A screenshot, if possible
