'Unleash your Business' with GT3
March 2007

Announcing the launch of GT3 – the latest version of the Greentree business- building solution.

Given Greentree’s innovative constant improvement and continuous software release approach, as opposed to the typical industry annual release, you may be asking why create a fanfare around just 1 release, why GT3?

We are celebrating all of the wonderful functionality that has been added to the Greentree product over the last couple of years, some of the examples of this include the new Manufacturing suite (see article on the addition of Quality Control), Approval and Alerts, Web Services Connectivity and the new HR suite. A huge driver in this continuous improvement is our customers' needs and inputs combined with our own innovations.

What better way to celebrate this GT3 achievement than with a great new product look plus many areas of improved visibility of information. Check out Graphs, Data Explorer and Business Intelligence and the many new capabilities in GT3.

And now “back to the future”. The release of GT3 is definitely not a static point and there will be no waiting for the industry typical “next year until the next release”. Greentree is pushing ahead with its continuous product improvements and other major initiatives and GT3 creates the platform for Business Process Management and Mobile Applications – both of which will be progressively rolled out during 2007.

The 'New' Look

Wow, Greentree GT3 introduces a fresh new look that begins when users startup Greentree, through the login screen, background and then on to all the forms and menus. We have designed this new look to be easy on the eye and yet provide a colourful working environment for you to use. But wait, there's more, the impact doesn’t just stop with the look and feel, users will now find colourful graphs on the each of the masterfiles that present visually compelling information specific to that item.

This serves to indicate how Greentree reveals the value beyond just what you see on the surface.

We have also introduced a number of exciting new capabilities in GT3 that will make using Greentree and finding information even easier.  For example you will now find a new option on the file menu called "Menu Search".  Have you ever been daunted by trying to find a particular menu option?  Well now we have made that easier. With ‘Menu Search’ type in the first few letters of the menu option and press enter, and all menu options that contain those letters will be displayed and you can select and action the one you want. 

As can be seen from this screen, we have undertaken a complete facelift of Greentree forms. From a new soft graduated colour background for each form and tab, through to colourful and larger set of Icons on the menu bar. And to enhance consistency, all masterfile forms now come standard with transaction launch buttons on the side bar (excludes Fixed Assets which will follow shortly).

Each form will also include a Related Tab to enable visibility and drill through to ALL related activities, from all suites for that item. Also, an Analysis Tab is now available on many of the forms to show 'contextual Intelligence/trends' related to that instance. Note that this can be turned off per user.

A key objective was to incorporate some of the direction of ‘Vista’ while still providing an uncluttered yet functional user experience. We think that difficult dynamic balance has been achieved and we hope you feel the same.
