Oak
Street is a fully integrated package. You
get all you need to run your entire operation.
In addition, information is exchanged between all
these modules whenever appropriate. Simply
put, the program knows what you need, and puts everything
where it's supposed to go.
The following are the functions that comprise
the Oak Street package: |
|
We made ease of use high priority. We've designed
the program with pull-down menus, pop-up boxes, and a
system that pulls up data from it's memory with only partial
entry of information from you. And everything you need
is right on the screen. There's no need to memorize
keyboard commands...you just make selections from choices
on the screen.
The Windows and Macintosh interface defined the standard
for the easy way to get around on a computer. Oak
Street uses that interface which allows you to easily
move around the screen. You can use the keyboard
or the mouse to enter or lookup data. You can scroll
up and down, backwards and forwards, or sideways to get
wherever you want to go. Unlike 99% of the `high
end' accounting software programs on the market, you are
never restricted to movement in one direction, and unable
to correct your mistakes.
Go to any place in the system to see data...without
having to exit the program you're using. Think of never
having to exit from where you're currently working in
order to look up information in another part of the system!
With the click of your mouse, or touch of a key, you'll
have your information available for review. For example,
you could be entering an order for one customer, and be
simultaneously checking accounts receivables for a different
customer.
The DataWriter enables you to create custom reports
to be used again and again...using the data from several
different files at once. It can also produce labels
that pull the information directly out of your files...sorted
in any sequence, and limited to just the information you
want. In addition, you can create custom letters
that automatically pull-in the information contained in
your files, at the appropriate point in the letter.
In addition, the DataWriter also gives you the ability
to directly edit the report layout, and get it into the
format you like.
Even with all the research and experience we've obtained
over the years, we still felt that we could not presume
to cover every possible contingency or variable in today's
rapidly changing business environment. We refused
to pretend to know every company's needs. As a result
we built in more flexibility than ever existed before
in any accounting software.
- An audit trail

- An audit trail

- Edit records
with automatic audit trail
- Accessibility
to items on the menus may be controlled per user name
- Security levels
may be applied per field to restrict it from being
viewed
- Security levels
may be applied per field to restrict it from being
changed
- Security levels

Transaction Resume updates data if your computer crashes
during processing
Automatic file header correction reduces the possibility
of file corruption
Listed below are the system requirements for installing
and running the program.
-
An IBM-compatible personal
computer
-
1 hard disk drive, at least
240 megabytes in capacity
-
1 megabyte of RAM (4 megabytes
recommended) for dos version. 16 megabyte of RAM
(32 megabytes recommended) for windows version.
When first installed,
the program will take up about 60 megabyte of space
(dos version) on your hard disk drive. Each of the datafiles
containing your customers, inventory items, sales orders
and accounts receivable transactions, will hold 1 billion
items. So, you are essentially limited only by the capacity
of your hard disk drive.
Support is a key component of the Oak Street program.
A thorough, illustrated manual is included with the
software. A variety of programs including phone
support, modem support, on-site training and installation,
as well as phone training are an integral part of the
customer support package.
Because
the functionality of Oak Street is so flexible and can
vary from company to company, we do not have a demo
CD. Instead what we offer is a live, no obligation,
demonstration that will clearly show you how Oak Street
will adapt to your business. To learn more about

Oak Street Library is a collection of documents that
