Microsoft 365 Laptop Setup with Entra ID and Windows 11 Pro

Set up two new business laptops with Microsoft 365 and upgraded both systems to Windows 11 Pro. Added a new Microsoft 365 user and upgraded two users to Microsoft 365 Premium licensing.

Configured Microsoft Authenticator, email and SMS verification for secure sign-in, and connected both laptops to the organisation’s Microsoft Entra ID environment.

Completed an initial SharePoint setup and identified several items requiring follow-up, including moving files from personal OneDrive accounts into the business OneDrive and SharePoint environment. The customer was also provided with a list of preparation tasks before the next visit, including working with their accountant to determine the preferred business folder structure.

Additional Microsoft account and configuration issues were troubleshooted during deployment, with further updates and follow-up work planned to complete the setup.

Local Network File Share for Business Exports

Configured a local network share for business export files so authorized staff could access them across the LAN without interrupting the workstation used to generate the reports. The change provided a simpler interim workflow while a longer-term SharePoint solution was planned.

SharePoint and OneDrive Business File Remediation

Corrected a OneDrive configuration where personal storage was conflicting with business SharePoint access. Organizational SharePoint synchronization was configured and a plan was developed to move business exports away from individual user storage into a shared SharePoint location.

Replacement Laptop Setup and Microsoft 365 Migration

Set up replacement Windows laptops with updates, Microsoft 365, OneDrive and SharePoint access. One machine was reinstalled to remove conflicts between personal Microsoft accounts and the business Microsoft 365 environment.

Microsoft 365 User, Authenticator and Outlook Setup

Set up a new Microsoft 365 user with Microsoft Authenticator and Outlook, assisted with password issues and reviewed the requirements for Office desktop applications. SharePoint planning was also started for the new office environment.
