About This Feature

Overview

Add Shortcut to lets you create a shortcut entry for the current multidimensional table and save it to a selected cloud-drive path, so you can open it faster from a location you use often.

Core capabilities include:

Open the shortcut command from File Operations and Document Management.
Choose a target cloud-drive path for the shortcut.
Remove the shortcut later without deleting the original multidimensional table file.

This feature is useful for organizing frequently used project files, setting up stable entry points for team materials, and reducing repeated file searches.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	You can open File Operations → Document Management → Add Shortcut from the current multidimensional table and place a shortcut in a selected cloud-drive path.	OneDrive supports adding shared folders to My files for easier access later; the official page mainly documents shared-folder shortcuts.	Google Drive supports shortcuts for files or folders and lets you place them in Drive or shared drives.	Notion supports Link to page and Copy link to block for workspace navigation, but not as a separate cloud-drive shortcut.	Adobe documentation here covers Windows program shortcut management rather than a matching cloud-document shortcut workflow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS lets you create the shortcut directly from the current multidimensional table workflow and choose the destination path; removing the shortcut does not remove the original file.	Compared with WPS: the official guidance focuses on adding shared folders in OneDrive, with less emphasis on an in-document shortcut entry flow.	Compared with WPS: Google Drive also supports shortcuts, but the entry point is the Drive file-management interface rather than a built-in multidimensional table command.	Compared with WPS: Notion is better aligned with page linking and workspace navigation than cloud-folder shortcut management.	Compared with WPS: Adobe mainly documents desktop program shortcut configuration, not online document shortcut placement.

Overall Conclusion
Add Shortcut to in WPS fits everyday document organization well because it starts from the current multidimensional table and leads directly to shortcut placement. Compared with broader cloud-drive or page-linking approaches, it is more focused on creating a quick access entry from the file you are already using.

Use Cases

No.	Scenario	Suitable For	Main Pain Point	How It Helps
1	Faster access to active projects	Project members	Frequently used multidimensional tables are spread across different folders	Add the current table to a commonly used cloud-drive path to reduce repeated searching
2	Organizing team entry points	Team leads	Shared materials need a clear and stable access point	Add a shortcut in a selected folder so common tables are easier to find
3	Stage-based task filing	Operations and execution roles	The same table needs to be found quickly from different work directories	Create a shortcut in the target directory while keeping the original file in place
4	Personal workspace cleanup	Frequent users	Too many home entries make important files harder to spot	Place high-frequency tables in a more suitable cloud-drive location
5	Maintaining access after changes	Collaborators	Users may worry that deleting a shortcut will affect the source file	Remove only the shortcut entry while leaving the original table unchanged
