Common Questions About This Accounting Team Site
What is this Accounting Team Site built with?
It is built entirely with standard SharePoint web parts – Hero, News, Events, People, Quick Links, Quick Chart, Countdown Timer, and Editorial – finished with a custom theme and custom fonts. There is no custom code and there are no third-party tools. It is the kind of clean, maintainable team site Greg Zelfond builds for accounting and finance teams.
What is included on the Accounting Team Site?
The site opens with a hero welcome and the team purpose, then a countdown timer to the reconciliations sign-off deadline. Below that are an Editorial Focus of the Month, team news and events, an accounts payable aging chart, a People section for team leads and the wider team, and quick links to the accounting apps and resources the team uses daily.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. The Accounting Team Site uses only out-of-the-box SharePoint web parts, a custom theme, and custom fonts. That keeps it stable, secure, and easy to maintain, and it means nothing breaks when Microsoft ships updates. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg builds, so the design stays reliable long after handoff.
Can this design be customized for our accounting team?
Absolutely. The welcome message, site purpose, countdown deadline, news, events, team members, chart data, and quick links are all tailored to your organization. Greg adapts the layout to your close calendar, your accounting tools, and the way your finance team is structured, so the site fits how you actually work.
What is the difference between this team site and an accounting department landing page?
This is a private team site for the people inside accounting – it carries working tools like the reconciliations countdown, the AP aging chart, and quick links to daily apps. A department landing page is outward-facing, telling the rest of the company what accounting does and how to request things. This design is built for the team’s own day-to-day work.
Can Greg build this Accounting Team Site for our organization?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box team sites like this one, tailored to your accounting team and tools, with no custom code. Reach out through the contact page to get started.
