Introduction

  This function allows you to change and delete records in a database file. This function allows you manage the row definitions for a Report Format.
   
 

Updating Records

  The program displays one page of records at a time on the display: you may use the ROLLUP key to display additional pages. To change a record, key in the new values for the record and press ENTER. To work with a record, enter the relevant character in the Selector column and press ENTER. The function will then validate your entries; if any errors are found a message will appear on the bottom line of the display.
   
 

Positioning function

  Select the records that you wish to change by using the the 'positioning' fields that appear on the upper part of the screen. When you enter a posi- tioning value, the program will position the display to start with the record that you specify.
   
 

Function Keys

Functions allow you to work with or display information related to all items or objects on the list or to perform a navigation function such as exit, return, or branch to another process.

 

F3=Exit

Use this function to exit the current task. In most cases this will return you to a high level display skipping other levels in between. In many cases you will return to the General Ledger System top level display. If you wish to return to one of the intermediate levels, use the "F12=Cancel" function key.
 

F4=Prompt

Use this function to display a list of valid values from which you can select the one you want. Place the cursor on the field for which you would like to see a list and press then press the F4 key. If you have placed the cursor on a field for which there is not a selection list, you will see an error message at the bottom of the display.
 

F5=Refresh

Refresh the display. This will normally return the display fields to their original values upon entering the display.
 

F6=Create

Use this function to create a new record and have it added to the list.
 

HELP=Help

Use this function for help text. By positioning the cursor at a field on the display and pressing help, help narrative will be displayed for that field. By placing the cursor on the title for the display, help narrative related to the entire function will be displayed. Once the help narrative is displayed you may then enlarge the display by using the F20 key or you may display expanded help narrative by using the F2 key.
 

HOME=Reset

Use this function to refresh the display. In most cases you will not see this function option at the bottom of your display. When used, this key will refresh the diaplay to the previous values and any keyed information typed after the last enter key will be lost.
 

ROLLDOWN or PAGEUP

Use this option to display the previous page.
 

ROLLUP or PAGEDOWN

Use this option to display the next page. Occasionly, when you are working with long lists and selecting records based on some value, it may appear that the end of the list has been reached prematurely. When this happens, check the bottom of the display for a note indicating that the scan limit has been reached. If you see this message, it means that more records exist. By using the function key again, you can continue to see more records. This method is used on long lists in order to prevent tying up the machine when a selection search is resulting in few records being found. It allows you an opportunity to verify you are using valid selection criteria and gives you a way out if you are not.
