Dear Colleagues,

 

On Thursday, July 29th Gold Rush will be releasing an improved way to
select Provide/Database combinations in the Gold Rush Staff Toolbox.
Currently, one must first select the Provider and after doing that a
list of Databases for that provider will appear.  The challenges with
this method are that one must first know the Provider and how it is
filed - something that is not always obvious. Secondly, this technique
is a bit slow.  

 

The new enhancement will offer a single box where you can just start
typing the characters for any part of the Provider/Database name.  The
system will provide a real-time narrowing selection of possibilities
that match the character string.  It is much faster and you can enter
the search in any order.  

 

This new technique will work in many different areas in the GR Staff
Toolbox including Holdings (selecting or deleting databases), Compare
Two Databases, Compare Multiple Databases, etc.

 

Let us know how you like the new feature at [log in to unmask]
Also, let us know if you have questions or encounter any unusual
behavior.

 

George
