14. Basic Folder Structure
•
All drives on the network are shared, with the exception of the U
drive.
• The U Drive is where you keep your personal documents. If it is client
or TES related it should NOT go into your U drive
•
The most common drives you will use are the Client (G:) and TES
(T:) drives
• All client folders are sorted first by raving fan. For example, Simon
Property Group is our raving fan, our major account, but most of the
work we do is with the individual malls. Therefore, in order to find the
work we’ve done with a particular mall, such as Solomon Pond, we
must first look for the raving fan folder, Simon. Furthermore, we’ve
done several jobs for Simon at Solomon Pond. Further drilling into the
folder structure would show you all of the project folders.
•
These drives are backed up daily. It is crucial to ensure we are
only backing up what is needed.
• Delete several draft versions of the same document
