New
Look & Feel and Improved
Navigation & Workflow
Featuring
a brand new look with the old familiar feel
you love about Amicus. We’ve redesigned
the interface to make it easier and more
intuitive to move around within the product.
A new Navigation pane increases the speed
and efficiency of navigation to save you
time while working with Amicus.
New
Tasks Module
The
Tasks module gives you a new centralized
place to get organized and get things done.
Enter To Do’s just by typing in the list.
There is no extra dialog needed, so you
can quickly jot down new tasks as you think
of them, and refine the details later. See
all of your To Do’s across any range of
time or files in one easy to manage list.
Even those you have assigned to other members
of your team. Sort them. Change priorities
or dates. Reassign them. Check their status.
Manage delegated tasks. All in one place.
Managing the task list for yourself and
your team has never been easier
Explorer
View on Documents
Documents
on files can be dynamically synchronized
with Windows Explorer® - just associate
a folder (on your hard drive or your network)
with a matter, and all documents placed
in that folder will automatically appear
in Amicus! Within this view you can take
full advantage of Windows Explorer functionality
including using shortcut menu commands.
Real
Time Spell Check
Reduce
errors with auto-correction inline in all
memo and text fields in Amicus.
My
Auto-Text
Define
your own list of text short-cuts that
expand into standard text when you type
them. Save time on all the most common
words that you type. Especially useful
for time entries! You can also use this
feature to create your own auto-correct
lists for errors you find yourself making.
Outlook
and Email Integration Enhancements
Automatically
include an email signature in new emails
that you send directly from Amicus Attorney.
Define your own Amicus email signature block
when initiating new emails from within Amicus.
Contact
Merge
You
might find from time to time that more than
one contact record has been created for
the same person. Team Members can now combine
information from two Contact records into
one directly from their own Contact Index,
rather than having to rely on the Team Administrator.
Outlook®
Synchronization
Customers
upgrading from the Advanced Edition will
also get the added benefit of Outlook Synchronization
previously only available in the Client/Server
Edition. With Outlook Synchronization, any
Contacts, Calendar Appointments, and Tasks/To
Do’s that are created in Amicus Attorney
will also appear in your Microsoft Outlook,
and vice versa.
