Custom fields
Add the extra information that matters to your customers, products, jobs or process instead of keeping it in a side spreadsheet.
Customisation & Screen Designer
Make Tall Emu fit the way your team works.
Use custom fields, layouts, tabs, filters, permissions, templates and workflows to shape a proven system around your business instead of starting from a blank development project.
Change the screen instead of teaching everyone to ignore half of it.
Version 3 introduces user-editable screens. Use the Screen Designer to move fields, hide fields you do not use and organise less important information into tabs so the everyday screen matches the job your team is doing.
Capture the information your business actually needs.
Layouts and tabs
Put common information in front of the user and move rarely used detail out of the way.
Filters and views
Save the views people use repeatedly so they can get back to the right list quickly.
Permissions
Control who can see or change information where the business needs tighter access.
Shape customer-facing documents and messages too.
Use document, email and SMS templates so the output looks and reads like your business. Tall Emu also includes webform design for collecting structured information from outside CRM.
Use workflows when the difference is process, not just layout.
If a business rule needs to happen repeatedly, use automation rather than relying on a note that says “remember to do this”. Screen design controls what people see; workflows control what should happen next.
How far can Tall Emu be customised?
Most changes are configuration, not development: custom fields, screen layouts, tabs, filters, permissions, templates and workflows shape a proven system around your business.
Configure the platform - do not rebuild it.
The advantage of Tall Emu is that customers, quoting, orders, stock, warehouse, MYOB and Xero integration and the core business objects are already there. Shape the part that is specific to your team without turning the whole system into a custom software project.
Customisation questions
Do I need a developer to customise Tall Emu?
For most changes, no. The Screen Designer, custom fields, layouts, templates and workflows are configuration your team can do, so the everyday screen matches the job being done.
What if we need changes beyond configuration?
Tall Emu’s Australian team quotes customisation as a fixed scope up front, so you know the cost before committing - not an open-ended development project.
Can we capture information specific to our business?
Yes. Custom fields add the information that matters to your customers, products, jobs or process, instead of keeping it in a side spreadsheet.
Can customer-facing documents match our business?
Yes. Quotes, invoices and other customer-facing documents and messages can be shaped with templates so what the customer sees fits how you work.
