FPC Scenario
FPC Scenario
Based on the Budget Planning scenario described in the Overview section of this document, these are the steps the FabriKam Finance Controller, Josh, would take to add and configure the Multi-Library List View (SPMLLV) FPC for SharePoint Products and Technologies for his private use in reviewing the budget plans.
He starts by modifying his home page on the SharePoint site to add the Multi-Library List View Web Part.

Then, in the tool pane, he selects the Multi-Library List View and selects the Library Type (Document or Form). As he completes this, the Configure Libraries tool part updates the document template selection list.
Next, he selects the base template. As he completes this, the Configure Libraries tool part updates the library list with libraries matching this criteria (restricted by his access rights).
Josh selects the libraries he wants to include.
He selects properties to display and their position.
