Lists in Teams is supported as a team based tab app built on top of the Microsoft Teams platform and Microsoft created the new app to bring all the collaboration and communication modalities to lists and list items to help teams get work done.
Teams users will be able to create new lists from scratch or from eight standard templates and three industry specific ones to keep track of patients, loans and incidents. However, lists can also be created from table data in Excel or even from an existing list.
In terms of list features, the app has all of the standard list features that are available in SharePoint web including column types, view formatting, Quick Edit, exporting to Excel, sorting, filtering and more. Keeping track of who did what is also simple as all user actions on a list are audited and available in the Security and compliance center audit logging.
By providing users with an easy way to create lists and keep track of their work, Microsoft has made it much easier for employees working from home to stay productive and collaborate with other members of their team online.
