RightOwner

Who owns payroll? Who approves vendor contracts? Who do I ask about the VPN?

RightOwner gives your company one trusted directory of owners for every system, process, vendor and budget, right inside Microsoft Teams. Every entry has an owner and a backup, so people always know who to ask.

What you can do

• Search the directory in seconds by entry, team or person
• See each entry's owner and backup, with their job title
• Start a Teams chat or send an email to the owner in one click
• Add entries with a people picker, or import an existing spreadsheet (CSV)
• Export the directory to a spreadsheet at any time
• Spot entries whose owner has left the company, or whose account is disabled, with the "Needs a new owner" filter
• See the full activity history: every add, edit, delete and import, who made it and when, with Restore for deleted entries

Your data stays in your Microsoft 365

RightOwner stores the directory and its activity history in SharePoint lists on your company's SharePoint home site, inside your own tenant. Sign-in is handled by Microsoft. RuBuild Services never receives, stores or sees your data.

Requirements

• Microsoft 365 work or school accounts with Microsoft Teams and SharePoint Online. There is no separate RightOwner account: people sign in with their existing Microsoft 365 account.
• A Microsoft 365 admin approves the app's permissions once for the organization.

Limitations

• RightOwner is a personal app (a tab in Teams). It does not add bots, message extensions, or tabs in channels, chats or meetings.
• Your organization has one directory, stored on the SharePoint home site. Creating it the first time needs a Microsoft 365 admin or SharePoint site owner.
• Anyone with access to the SharePoint home site can search the directory. Adding entries needs Edit access to that site. An entry can be changed or deleted only by its owner, its backup or the person who added it.
• The activity history records changes made in RightOwner. Changes made directly to the SharePoint list outside RightOwner are not recorded there.
• The app is available in English.
