Dashboard
Decide
what you want to see, where and how. Design
your own screens - put the information and tools
together that you want to work with. Work efficiently
when you can have all the information that is
most important to you together in one place.
Create
as many dashboards as you'd like. With the Amicus
Dailies Dashboard, you are in control!
 |
Enhance
Visibility
Easily design a visual display combining
your Amicus data and external information,
such as network files and folders or websites,
in a single screen. Select data views
needed to achieve your specific objectives,
be it strategic, analytical or operational.
Choose from a variety of data lists, summaries,
new record items, tools and utilities,
embedded browsers, etc. Mix several data
types or
create multiple Dashboards to support
the different aspects of your practice.
|
 |
Customize
Your View
Design a screen to visually present data
how you want it. Pick how many sections
you want displayed in your Dashboard and
use color, shape, size and borders to
draw attention to important elements or
to create visual groupings. And as your
needs change, you can modify your Dashboard
to reflect your new priorities.

Interact
with Data
Easily interact with data right from your
dashboards.
|
Client Matter Intake Form
Now
firms can ensure that all pertinent file information
is captured at the time a file is opened. When
starting a new file, the optional Client Matter
Intake Form walks you through a predetermined
list based on file type. Minimize errors, save
time and ensure all necessary information is
captured at the time a file is opened.
 |
Customized
Intake Forms
Create
personalized templates consisting of multiple
screens with whichever fields your firm
deems important when creating a new file.
With the file intake form the administrator
can choose to have specific information
entered depending on the specified file
type.
A
real estate case, for instance, would
require totally different information
than a personal injury case.
|
 |
Required
Fields
Mark certain fields as required so users
can't continue with the file intake process
without inputting the specified information. |
Improved
Conflict Check
Build
a custom conflict check by picking what elements
of Amicus should be searched, including custom
fields, time entries, notes and more and save
or print results in an easy to read report.
 |
Multiple
Name Check
Save time by performing a conflict check
for multiple names in a single search session.
|
 |
Advanced
Search
A new advanced setting offers a broader
range of searchable fields including custom
contact and file text fields, contact notes,
note records, time entry descriptions, event
title and notes, communications to/from,
and many more. |

Results
Report
Conflict check results are output in an
easy to read report including an outline
of the criteria searched, a comments column,
and a separate column indicating the field
in which the match was found.
Print
the report or optionally save the results
and attach it to an Amicus File. Printouts
include the searched names(s) and the
user who ran the report in addition to
comprehensive information about any matches.
