Ready to put Intuit's QuickBase to work? Our new Missing Manual shows
you how to capture, modify, share, and manage data and documents with
this web-based data-sharing program quickly and easily. No longer do you
have to coordinate your team through a blizzard of emails or play
frustrating games of guess which document is the right one.
QuickBase saves your organization time and money, letting you manage and
share the information that makes your business tick: sales figures,
project timelines, drafts of documents, purchase or work
requests--whatever information you need to keep business flowing
smoothly.
QuickBase: The Missing Manual shows you how to choose among
QuickBase's dozens of ready-made applications (mini-databases,
essentially) and how to customize one to fit your needs exactly. You'll
also learn to assign people different roles within the application. The
guide also shows you how to:
- Capture and modify data: Whatever kind of data you need to
store--sales leads, catalog listings, project milestones, workflow
checklists--you can use QuickBase's forms to record and organize that
data so it makes sense to you.
- Filter, sort, and group data: Easily find the records that match your
criteria, and then sort those records into groups that make their
relationships clear.
- Display your data: QuickBase uses different views (Table, Grid Edit,
Summary/Crosstab, Calendar, Chart, and Timeline) to display and
summarize data. Switching between them is easy, like taking tasks
listed in a table and displaying them as a timeline.
- Create reports: Print out a hard copy, embed charts in the annual
report, or email this month's sales numbers.
Because Intuit frequently introduces new features to QuickBase, you'll
find updates to this book at our Missing Manual web site so you can
benefit from the latest technology and user suggestions right away.
