3 Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory Introduction Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory is an optional Program Function and is not included as a standard part of the system. The Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory Module provides a complete Tree Inventory, Care and Work Tracking System for large grounds areas, golf courses, and parks. Comprehensive reports provide you with up-to-theminute information on Trees in any Grounds Location. The Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory System also maintains accurate History of Trees, Work Schedules, Work Requests and Completed Work Activities. As you generate Work Requests and Work Schedules, the integrated features of the system provide automatic updating of Tree Maintenance History. Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory 3

4 Setting the Tree Configuration Option Before entering any information into the Tree Inventory File, it is necessary to decide if you will be using Botanical Tree Species Names or Common Species Names throughout the Tree Inventory System. Setting the Botanical Tree Species Names Configuration Option must be done on the Software Options Tab through System Utilities - Software Registration & Configuration. If a checkmark is placed by Use Botanical Tree Species Names, Botanical Names will appear on all Tree Inventory Reports and Screens, otherwise Common Species Names will be used. 4 Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory

5 Pre-Defined Location Names A pre-defined Location Name file can be created to prevent spelling errors and confusion of Location Name Formats. Open NOTEPAD and type in a list of Location Names in the Order you would like Names to appear in a drop-down window on many data entry and report screens. Save the file into the data folder with the file name StreetNames.txt. Example: C:\TRIMS2K\StreetNames.txt On many data entry screens you will be able to enter the Location Name or click on the Down Arrow to select a Location. Entering a New Location Name WILL NOT add the Location to the StreetNames.txt file, but it will be added to the TRIMS data base. At anytime you may add additional Location Names by modifying the StreetNames.txt file located in the TRIMS data folder. Golf Course & Park Tree Inventory 5
