SAN MATEO, CA. - April 24, 2003 -- NetLedger, Inc., makers of Oracle(r)
Small Business Suite, today announced a set of new, enhanced usability
features across its award-winning product offerings -- including Oracle
Small Business Suite, NetSuite, and NetCRM(tm) -- delivering to users unprecedented
ease of use and more flexible customization. The enhanced usability features
allow users to instantly access information with fewer clicks; to gain
greater visibility of customer data; and to customize the way the information
is organized and displayed. In addition, the new sorting and display capabilities
in the Web Store increase sales and customer satisfaction by allowing web
visitors to sort items by various criteria and to view large numbers of
items in a dense table format. The Oracle Small Business Suite name is
used under license from Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ: ORCL).
"NetLedger`s products are the most widely used application services in
the small and medium business market, and this release embodies a lot of
the great ideas we get from our large and growing customer base," said
Zach Nelson, president and CEO of NetLedger.
New, enhanced usability features unveiled today include:
1. Reduce Mouse-Clicks
New Activities Bar - users can now add any activity to an entity record
with one click. When working with leads, prospects, customers, partners
and vendors, convenient one-click access has been added to create new contact,
events, tasks, e-mail, quotes, sales orders and other related information.
After adding new activities and information, users are taken to a screen
where they can view and edit the newly entered data.
Completing Tasks - users can now mark a task as complete directly from
their home page. Users no longer have to edit individual tasks and set
their status to complete, but can instead check off the task as Completed
right from their home tab.
2. Greater Data Visibility
Sub-Customer/Jobs and Sub-Partners Tabs - users can now view a customer`s
Sub-Customers and Jobs directly from the parent customer record. Similarly,
users can view Sub-Partners while in the parent partner record.
Single View with No Tabs - Users now have the option of viewing their records
without tabs, allowing them to view the record`s entire content in one
scrolling form, rather than clicking on separate tabs to view the information.
3. Web Store and Publishing
Available in Oracle Small Business Suite and NetSuite, users can personalize
their Web Store customers` shopping experience by displaying store items
in dense list layouts that can be sorted and contain an "Add To Cart" button
as part of the dense list. Users can present much more information in a
small area that is easy for their customers to digest. The sorting capabilities
allow the Web customer to sort items in alphabetical order, by price or
any other column that is part of the list. And the Add To Cart buttons
reduce the navigation back and forth frequency between the items details
page, making their overall shopping experience much more enjoyable so they`ll
keep coming back for more.
4. Improved Reporting
Reporting has been enhanced to generate reports faster than ever. Large
reports are now delivered in a paginated form, allowing much quicker load
times. Users can easily navigate around the report by using the Home,
End, Page Up, and Page Down keys on the keyboard. A progress bar displayed
at the bottom of the report will automatically indicate when the report
is fully loaded.
