The Print button in the middle of the screen prints up a job sheet containing all relevant information for the deposition; your letterhead, location of the deposition, client's name and ordering preferences, time, anticipated length, special deposition features, and any notes that you may wish, as boilerplate and customized for this job setting.

Of special note: By clicking on the Attorney or Reporter button, you bring up those screens, from which you make your choice of attorney and reporter at the deposition. All databases are fully relational. While in the those screens, you can add entries and edit your existing entries.

Details Tab

In this screen, you have check boxes for video, phone, or realtime jobs. Special notes can be entered in the first free-form field. The Other Notes automatically brings in your client's ordering preferences. You may also make other entries in this field. Other support subcontractors/staff can be noted in these fields as well.

Status Tab

In this screen, you may choose to track the status of the deposition. This is the data from which you can run status, production, and filing ticklers and reports. The pages field is for your status report; the actual number of pages is recorded in Invoices. The grayed-out invoice number box reflects the first invoice that was attached to this deposition. This is often useful in trying to track and cross-reference depositions to invoices.
