Lean Portal

 user interface for Systems2win Excel templates for continuous process improvement

What is the Systems2win Portal?

  1. a search-friendly user interface
    One of the ways to find and open your Systems2win templates, the portal gives you a picture and description of each template - making it the easiest way to find a template you have not used before.
  2. where you will find ALL of your licensed templates
    In addition to Word and Excel templates, there are also PowerPoint, Project, PDF, and HTML templates that are found only in your portal.
  3. the central master location for your company's (perhaps personalized) master templates
    If and when you personalize a master template, you will overwrite the master in your portal - and then you might either manually or automatically sync your personalized template to each user's default User Templates folder.

Tip: Even if you are a single user, you will still use your portal in all of the above ways

How to find your S2winPortal

Excel or Word > Systems2win menu > Systems2win Portal

The portal will open in your web browser,
and the folder path will also be revealed in your web browser's address bar.

Portal Setup

This simple browser user interface does not require much Information Systems support.

The S2winPortal can be installed:

  • on a single user's local PC
  • on a shared LAN or WAN server
  • in various network environments (such as SharePoint, intranet web server, Citrix, and other setup options)

It is only a file repository (no programming is on the server) - and can be set up in less than 5 minutes.
