GAS MANager Task Organizer
GAS MANager Task Organizer is provided as a
Microsoft SharePoint site running on a server computer running
Windows Server 2003, or higher. In addition to the benefits
listed below, Task Organizer allows each administrator to configure
the SharePoint site with additional customizations such as
announcements, calendar events, team discussions, links to external
web sites, and additional document libraries.
GAS MANager Task Organizer does not require the
use of our GAS MANager billing software but GAS MANager users
appreciate the ease with which data can be exported to the Task
Organizer SharePoint site.
GAS MANager Task Organizer was developed
to achieve 2 main objectives:
-
To reduce the volume of paper documents
that are created and stored in the process of performing service
projects.
-
Introduce some automation to the
management of service projects.
The above objectives are satisfied when
the following goals are met:
-
Provide a shared, central location for
the storage of service project related documents.
-
Establish a standard procedure for documenting
the initiation and progress of service projects.
-
In order to encourage adherence to the
standard procedures, provide field service personnel with the
ability to work with service project documents while in the
field.
-
Provide for the sharing of customer and
meter data from the billing system with GAS MANager Task
Organizer.
-
Minimize the requirement to learn new
skills by leveraging existing skills in Microsoft Word and
Microsoft Excel.
GAS MANager Task Organizer provides the following
benefits:
- All documents related to service projects are stored in a
central location for easy storage, retrieval and backup.

order to prevent the inadvertent loss of someone else’s changes.
