A `Sneak Peek' at Daybook Enterprise Version 6's Diary
	Upgraded, reworked and with superior functionality, the long-awaited, version 6 of Daybook Enterprise, is soon to be unveiled. In keeping with last month's promise to sneak you yet more information about our soon-to-be-released package, this month we are giving you an exclusive insight into the innovative diary function of this advanced piece of software. One of our users' most frequent requests has been to have a graphical diary interface * such as those used by Microsoft Outlook or Entourage. Due to popular demand, we are pleased to announce that this will be included in Enterprise 6.
	Since it was first released, Enterprise has had an integrated diary environment, for faster, more effective working. Events, tasks and appointments appear as panes in a single window and can be quickly navigated, using daily, weekly or monthly views. Hierarchal lists mean that you can quickly collapse and expand lists of data.

At the same time, the functional diary listings, derived from Modulus, are still on hand, should you prefer to use them. Diary organisers often display the days of the week in columns going across the page, in a weekly view, and the days of the month in a grid, so that you can see the whole month at a glance. As this was one of our most sought-after feature enhancements, and, since we try to include functions that clients request whenever possible, we did just that. So, in Enterprise 6, the user wzill have the option of extending the diary, so that they can move between the hierarchal lists and enhanced graphical views. You will also be able to switch between the split window view, which displays details of the currently selected record in the pane on the right, and a full-window display.

Task, event and appointment scheduling The main diary window shows you a list of tasks, events and appointments, by day, week or month. Clicking on one of them displays full details in the right-hand pane. There are several ways to view your diary data and version 6 allows you to choose the one that suits you best.   Business Alerts You can also use the diary to book rooms, reserve equipment and schedule non-human resources of any type. Inanimate objects need diaries too! Group calendaring & collaboration Workgroups will be able to view the diaries of other people in the group and quickly switch between them. Resource scheduling You can also use the diary to book rooms, reserve equipment and schedule non-human resources of any type. Inanimate objects need diaries too! Workflow sequences If you put a client appointment in the diary, it will automatically generate a confirmation email and schedule the preparation time the day before. When you get back and close the appointment in your diary, Enterprise 6 will produce a follow-up letter and schedule a follow-up phone call seven days later. That is just an example of its functionality * the diary is fully customisable to ensure that Enterprise 6 helps you work in the best way for your business, your employees and your clients. ItŐs scriptable Moreover, in keeping with the rest of the Enterprise 6 suite, the diary is fully programmable. Consequently, it can automate and mirror your business processes, with the result that you save time and money, work more effectively, maintain quality standards and lessen reliance on staff training. With its many diary views, true multi-user capability and complete integration with the rest of your system, the Enterprise 6 diary is an outstanding solution for everyone who needs to control their daily activities. We hope that you have found this brief preview helpful. Some more views Using on the 4D 2003 database engine, Enterprise 6 runs on Windows 98, Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, Windows ME, and Windows XP and on Mac OS 9.2.2 and Mac OS v10.2.x.
