Description
Different business functions have differing needs. The IT department's SharePoint site should not be the same as the marketing department's or customer service's or accounting's. Role-based templates are a great way to address the various business roles and build sites that meet each one's needs. Microsoft currently offers eight templates in its "My Sites" feature. Each one comes preconfigured with components that can enhance productivity and help with the particular business function of that department. These role-based sites were designed after the customer model-based research done for Microsoft Dynamics. These are simple to implement and provide a vast array of functions specific and unique to those roles.
