One of Victoria's water corporations was the first organisation to use TechnologyOne's (relatively) new reporting component.

TechnologyOne Publisher is the reporting component of TechnologyOne's corporate performance management suite. It works by allowing users to create report templates, which are then loaded with quantitative and qualitative data from a variety of sources.

The resulting reports are circulated for checking and then published in various formats. Supported formats include Word, PowerPoint, PDF, email, and HTML.

GWMWater, the water corporation serving Victoria's Grampians, Wimmera and Mallee regions, was the pilot site for TechnologyOne Publisher. The corporation already used multiple TechnologyOne products.

Sally Marshall, GWMWater's finance and pricing manager, said TechnologyOne Publisher had more than halved the time needed to prepare board and executive reports. Describing the product as "an invaluable tool", she said the corporation planned to use it for all of its reporting requirements.

TechnologyOne executive chairman Adrian Di Marco said TechnologyOne Publisher "cuts out the manual step and uses systems to do the work they were designed for - reporting in most organisations is incredibly inefficient so we looked at a way of solving this."
