Product Description:
Stonefield Query™ is a powerful end-user report writer that streamlines and
simplifies the process of analyzing and reporting your GoldMine and HEAT data.
Stonefield Query is designed to make it easy for you to create your own reports in just minutes.
With its user-friendly design, Stonefield Query makes report creation a snap
for users of all skill levels. Stonefield Query uses a simple wizard interface,
taking you through five easy steps to create a report. The built-in Advanced
Report Designer allows you to move fields, add lines, add boxes and shading,
include graphics such as company logos, define calculated fields and more. This
feature is ideal for businesses with a need for presentationquality reports.
After you have created your report, you can direct it to a printer, Excel, Word,
HTML, screen preview or other output. Stonefield Query does the rest!
The Stonefield Query
Advantage
Unlike generic report writers, Stonefield Query has been customized and optimized
for GoldMine and HEAT.
Ease of Use
You don’t have to tell Stonefield Query how to get the data; you simply tell
it what you want, and it’ll figure out how to get it.
All fields (even user-defined fields) appear with the caption you’ve assigned
(global or local label) rather than the field name or ‘User-Defined 2’.
Productivity
With a generic report writer you are responsible for laying out fields, adjusting
sizes and headings manually. Stonefield Query automatically creates fields and
headings, places them in the right spot, and sizes them appropriately. You can
create a report in Stonefield Query in just seconds with only a few mouse clicks!
Grouping, sorting, and totaling fields is as simple as selecting the desired
option from a list.
Performance
Stonefield Query uses SQL SELECT statements to retrieve records from the database,
so only those records that match the filter are accessed. This can have an enormous
impact on the performance of the query. For example, one Stonefield Query user
told us that a report they created in GoldMine takes over 25 minutes to run
but the same report in Stonefield Query takes just 15 seconds! That’s 100 times
faster! S 5easy Winner of the 2002 FrontRange Integration Award 2000 Developer’s

Easier and More Flexible
Filtering
Simply select the field to filter on, choose how to compare it to a value from
a list of English operators (“equals”, “does not equal”, “contains”, “is greater
than”, etc.), and enter a value or choose it from a list of the distinct values
for that field (you can even choose dates from a pop-down calendar).Create filters
that prompt you for a value each time you run a report such as a desired date
range for an activity report.
Links With Other Add-On
Products
Stonefield Query can integrate with other GoldMine add-on products. For example,
if you use Details Plus from Solica Consulting, Stonefield Query will automatically
display the proper headings and data you’ve entered for extended detail types.
If you use QuoteWerks from Aspire Technologies, you can create reports in Stonefield
Query that include information from both GoldMine contacts and QuoteWerks quotes.
