MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES               Introduction

   The set of programs encoded on the disks will supply the user with the 
ability to handle many functions concerned with Accounts Receivables.

The user will be able to:

*  Set up information for his own company,

*  Set up information for up to a total of 2,500 customers containing:
      1.  Customer Name,
      2.  Customer Address,
      3.  Type of customer, either to be billed showing all information or
              to be billed showing only balance forward,
      4.  If the customer is to be automatically billed a set amount each
              month (This can be over-ridden),
      5.  Amount to be billed automatically, if any,
      6.  Amount of tax to be added to each invoice, if any,
              (8 tax zones available),
      7.  Amount outstanding, if any,
      8.  Total amount paid for the year, if any,
      9.  Total number of transactions for the year, if any,

*  Debit customer directly without involving invoices,

*  Credit customers with payments including provisions for early payment
      discounts which may have been taken by the customer,

*  Prepare an invoice for a customer which can contain up to 36 separate
      items, freight costs, taxes and miscellaneous costs,

*  Automatically prepare invoices for automatic billing customers if so
      desired,

*  Print out transaction reports showing all billing and credits for a set
      period of time.  This shows taxes, discounts, freight, miscellaneous
      costs, charges and credits,

*  Print out statements at any time for all customers, only those with 
      action and for any individual customer.  Over due amounts can be 
      flagged if so desired,

*  Print out reports of all invoices sent at a given time during the month 
      showing all information in summarized form,

*  Print out reports of all statements sent showing all information in 
      summarized form,

*  Do two types of aging reports showing summarized information or complete 
      information for all customers, only those with action, or a specific 
      customer.  These can be printed or viewed on the console,

*  Produce an Overdue Accounts Report based on any number of days overdue,

*  Print reports (or on console) showing information about all customers,
      those with action or any specific customer,

*  Print mailing labels for all customers, those with action or any specific 
      customer.







MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES                The Files  

     The system finds each customer by entering either the customer name OR 
the customer number.  In this way any of the up to 2,500 customers can be 
located very rapidly, (within 1/2 second).

   The system maintains a number of files which contain:
      information regarding the customer, 
      the most recently entered information, 
      information entered but not yet printed in invoice form, 
      information not yet involved with statements, 
      information previously shown on statements.    

   The general monthly routine would be to:

      1.  Enter debits for customers either directly or by invoice,
      2.  Automatically invoice customers who have a set monthly fee,
          such as a maintenance charge, if you have any,
      3.  Send invoices if you want,
      4.  Enter credits, at any time, to any customer upon receipt
          of payments,
      5.  Print transaction reports during the month, daily, weekly,
          or whenever you want,
      6.  Transfer the data from the transaction file to the permanent
          file, either after printing each transaction report or at any
          other time,
      7.  Send out statements,
      8.  Print out aging reports showing all detail to date,
      9.  Print out a report showing customer overdue upon your selection
          of a time period, such as 45 days,       
      10  Print out customer reports showing all information to date,
      11. Consolidate the permanent file.
      12. Print out any month end reports, aging, etc.
   
      Begin the next month.  

INFORMATION GOES INTO A TEMPORARY TRANSACTION FILE FIRST.

THE INFORMATION IN THE TEMPORARY TRANSACTION FILE PRODUCES 
    INVOICES IF SO DESIRED.

THE TEMPORARY TRANSACTION FILE PRODUCES THE TRANSACTION FILE REPORTS.

THE INFORMATION MUST BE TRANSFERRED FROM THE TEMPORARY
    TRANSACTION FILE TO THE PERMANENT FILE BEFORE SENDING STATEMENTS.
    THIS CLEARS THE TEMPORARY TRANSACTION FILE.

AFTER STATEMENTS HAVE BEEN SENT THE PERMANENT FILE MUST BE
    CONSOLIDATED TO REMOVE (MATCH) DEBITS AND CREDITS.

     In order to make it a little easier for the first-time user this 
section will act as a reference in case the notation used in the manual 
becomes confusing.

     Computers are not smart.  You are smart for using a computer.  
Computers don't know what to do.  Programmers, like the one who produced the 
software you are about to use, have to instruct the computer, step by step, 
exactly what to do.  Most computer programs, this one included, require that 
the user interact with the computer by means of the keyboard.

     Keyboards vary among computers but one key must appear on all keyboards 
in some form.  It is the key which must be depressed to inform the computer 
that the user has completed any specific entry.  For example, suppose the 
screen asks you the following question:

           HOW OLD ARE YOU _

     Some computers will automatically place a question mark (?) after the 
word YOU.  Others will not.  Some will present a small dashed line just 
after the word YOU, others may show a blinking line, and still others may 
present you with a bright rectangle or a long bar of light to show where you 
should place your answer.  Some day you may have to simply respond by voice, 
but for now, the keyboard does the job.  (Oh, yes, we know there are Touch-
Screens, Light-Pens, Joy Sticks and Mice or is it mouses?)

     To respond to the above question simply type your age, 21, by 
depressing the number '2' key and then depressing the number '1' key.  It 
makes no difference if you use the row of keys at the top of the keyboard or 
the keypad of number keys at the side.  Some keyboards don't have the upper 
row, some don't have the keypad but all must have some way to type in 
numbers.  If you can't figure it out, see your operator's manual which came 
with the computer.

     Now that you have typed in the two numbers, what next?  The computer 
still patiently waits.  It will continue waiting until you depress one more 
key.  It is identified in different ways on the keyboard.  Various names are 
RETURN, ENTER, ENT, RET, CR, and on some machines, some form of an arrow.  
Again, if you are confused, see your operator's manual.  Depressing this key 
informs the computer that you have completed your entry.

     What kind of questions will you have to answer?  We have given the 
example of inputting numbers (notice the use of the computer word, 
inputting).  This is just a fancy way of saying 'entering'.  You can also 
enter letters of the alphabet.  Some keyboards allow both upper and lower 
case letter production by using the shift key or setting a shift lock key or 
even by using a key marked 'ALTERNATE' or 'ALT'.  The method is the same.  
Type your input, such as, ROBERT and then depress the ENTER or RETURN key.  
Throughout the manual we will use the notation <CR> to indicate when you 
should depress the ENTER or RETURN key.  The <CR> stands for 'carriage 
return' which is the notation that has been used since the old Key Punch 
machines were used with the first computers.

     You can also enter various symbols but with this program you will be 
limited to such things as the plus (+) and minus signs (-), the decimal 
point (.) and the asterisk (*).  Of course you DO NOT TYPE THE PARENTHESES.  
In addition, you may want to enter the dollar sign ($).  NEVER ENTER THE 
DOLLAR SIGN, it will totally confuse the machine.  

     It is a good idea to enter only UPPER CASE letters of the alphabet when 
responding to questions such as DO YOU WANT A HARD COPY (Y or N) <Y>.




MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES                Reference  

     Take a moment to note that you are being offered a choice of either YES 
or NO but you only have to type in the first letter, Y or N.  In addition 
there is a letter Y enclosed in brackets <Y>.  This is called a DEFAULT.  It 
means that if you depress the ENTER or RETURN key the machine will 
understand it to mean YES.  This saves you a keystroke but it also indicates 
the usual answer at that point in the program.  If no DEFAULT is shown and 
you simply depress the RETURN or ENTER key the program will PROMPT you to 
respond again in the correct fashion.  A PROMPT is computer language for 
what appears on the screen in the form of a question or direction.  One 
direction you will see many times is, Depress RETURN to continue.  That is a 
prompt instructing you to depress the return key when you are ready to 
continue.  This prompt is generally used when you are getting ready to use 
the printer.  It allows the computer to stop and wait while you make sure 
the printer is on and  the paper or forms are adjusted properly.

     When you are entering the names of customers and their addresses it is 
permissible for you to use LOWER CASE letters such as, Modern Microcomputers 
rather than MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS if you think that looks better in reports 
and on statements.  

     This system is driven (another computer word) by MENUS.  A menu is 
nothing but a listing of various actions you can select to perform.  In most 
cases each item has a number and you select the action by typing in (input
ting or entering) the number you want followed by depressing the RETURN 
<CR>.  Most menus also include a way to move to a different menu or to show 
additional selections.  

     Sometimes you will select an action on a menu and find that a second, 
or SUB-MENU will appear that requires you to make another selection.  For 
example, you may select an item from a menu for a report.  The sub-menu may 
give you the options of viewing the report on the screen or getting a 
HARDCOPY.  A hardcopy (computer language) is a printout on the printer.

     Now some technical things.  If you are familiar with your computer you 
may want to skip this section.

     Your computer must store information for later use.  Some information 
is stored in the computer's RAM (Random Access Memory) so that it can be 
worked on very quickly.  Other information is magnetically written onto some 
external material.  This may be a 'Floppy Disk', a 'Hard' or 'Rigid' disk, 
or magnetic tape.  This externally stored information remains on the disk or 
tape until you or the program removes or overwrites it with new information.  
The information in the RAM remains only while the machine is turned on.  If 
the computer goes off for some reason, that information is lost.

     These programs are designed to keep as little information in RAM as 
possible in case there is a power failure.  Important information is written 
to the disk as soon as possible after entry.  This is designed to protect 
you and your valuable data, but, problems can still happen if there is an 
interruption of electricity.  You will notice the drive light coming on and 
turning off during the process of running the programs indicating that 
information is being stored on the hard disk.

     Although the current Hard Disks which are supplied with today's 
computers are very reliable, with a Mean Life Before Failure of over 20,000 
hours, they can and probably will, at sometime down the road, fail. 








MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES                Reference  

     It is a wise procedure to make backup (duplicate) copies of your data 
whenever you feel that they contain enough information so that it would 
become difficult to re-enter that information.  Some users make a backup 
copy each day at the close of business.  Backup copies take about two to 
three minutes and it is time well spent.

     As you are working with a programs you will be requested to make backup 
copies of various files at certain points during the program.  You might 
also want to backup the data onto a floppy disk at that time.  We will 
explain how to do this later in the manual.  

     These programs are designed for a Hard Disk system.  The original 
programs however, are supplied on floppy disks.  The floppy disks will be 
inserted into Drive 'A' of your computer.  The Hard Drive is referred to as 
Drive 'C'.  When the programs are transferred to the Hard Disk they original 
disks will create a Sub-Directory called ACCT-REC.  There will also be a 
BATCH file produced in the C: Root Directory.  In order to run the programs 
you must boot your system and then type ACCT-REC.  This activates the BATCH 
file, transfers you to the correct Sub-directory and starts the programs.

     If you prefer, you can use the CD ACCT-REC command from the root 
directory and then type MENU followed by depressing the RETURN key.

                            SOME DOs AND DON'Ts

     DON'T turn on a computer with disks in the drives. (NEVER, NEVER)

     DON'T turn off a computer with disks in the drives. (NEVER, NEVER)

     Many computer experts recommend that you NEVER turn off a computer
          that has a Hard Disk.  When you are finished for the day,
          simply turn off the monitor.

     Blank diskettes DO cost only $3 each.

     Every hour spent entering information to the computer represents
          approximately $23.50 (as reported by the CPA Journal).
          If you enter data for a full year, that is approximately
          $30,000.00.  That is 10,000 times the cost of a diskette.

     Make backup copies of the files on the hard disk.


     You will be asked to enter your company information as the first step 
in setting up the system.  This information will be printed at the top of 
some reports, on all invoices and on all statements.

     You will be asked how many customers you intend to use.  We suggest you 
set up your system to hold at least 1,000 customers, even if you don't ever 
intend to use this many.  The system works just as rapidly with 2,500 
customers as it does with 100 customers and the extra space can be used by 
the machine for various other purposes.

     You will be asked about each customer you enter.  You can, of course, 
change any of the material concerning a customer at any time.









MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES            Basic Information

     When entering information regarding a customer you must indicate if the 
customer will be a (R)egular customer or a (B)alance forward customer.  
Regular customers will receive statements showing each and every transaction 
made during the transaction period.  Balance forward customers will receive 
statements showing only the total of all debits and credits for the trans
action period.

     In addition, at the statement printing time, you will be able to 
instruct the machine to show only the balance forward from the last 
statement or all outstanding transactions for the (R)egular customers.  In 
effect, you can produce three types of statements.

     You can indicate an amount of money which you want to have appear on 
all statements for specific customers who are referred to as Automatically 
billed customers.  Then, at statement time, you can simply have the machine 
bill these customers.  You can of course, add other charges to these 
customers if you so desire.  This feature may help with customers that you 
bill on a flat rate basis, such as a service charge, each month.
     OK,  Now lets set up the computer to run the programs for a company.

     TURN ON YOUR COMPUTER AND BOOT YOUR SYSTEM. With the IBM PC and com
patibles, depress the Control, Alternate and Delete keys at the same time.
If you are unsure of how to boot your system, refer to the computer manual
for your unit.

     The system should 'boot' and the C> prompt will appear if you are 
booting directly from the Hard Disk.  If you are requested to enter the date 
and time, do so. There may be other information on the screen but don't 
concern yourself with that.

     Depress the CAPS LOCK key.  On some computers this will cause a light 
to show that the system is now in the capital lock position, on others, 
there is no indication.  Later you can enter things in lower case but for 
now, CAPITALS are better.

     Please refer back to the section on INTRODUCTION and install the
programs and the batch file as directed. 

     Type ACCT-REC and depress the RETURN key.

     Each entry is terminated with the depressing of the RETURN key.  We 
will use the notation <CR> when that is to be done.  Remember, the machine 
waits to accept your input until you depress the RETURN key.

     Before going any further, you should look up in your printer
manual to find the control codes which are used to move the paper
to the top of the next page and the control codes to set your
printer into compressed print mode and to remove it from the compressed
print mode and set it back to the normal print mode.  The numbers
will be required for entry on the first screen you will see.  The
numbers are entered only the very first time you set up the programs
and will not have to be re-entered again unless you change your
printer to some other make.  If you do change the printer, or run
into any confusion on the set-up of the printer controls and the
programs seem to be running 'crazy", simply delete the file called
FORM by using the ERASE function.

*  and then enter a 0.  The 0 will indicate that the entries are complete *

*  function, simply enter a NO at that point.                             *
*                                                                         *
*  You may now enter a CODE WORD to be used at certain places             *
*  in the programs.  Please make a record of the word so that             *
*  you will not forget it.  Please enter the word _                       *

     By this time I am sure you know the blinking _ is called the cursor.
          
     I am going to enter KNODT as my code word and follow with <CR>.

   Before going any further, make sure that the number lock is in the number 
position and not the cursor position so that the keypad, if you have one, 
will operate properly.

     The code used by most printers to move to the top of the next page is 
simply 12.  Enter 12 <CR> and then 0 <CR>.  The 0 tells the machine you have 
completed entering the control codes for the desired function


*                                                                         *

     For others, consult the printer manual.

     If you do answer Y for compressed print the computer will automatically 
shift into this mode when printing reports.  These reports will then fit on 
ordinary 8-1/2" by 11" paper.  If you prefer to use the wide paper for 
reports, indicate that the printer does not have the compressed print 
ability.

     If everything is correct the screen should clear and the computer 
should may now request:  (If your computer keeps on-board time, this doesn't 
show.)

     Please note that if you had selected N as the answer to the question 
about Hard Copy the information would have appeared on the screen instead of 
printed out.  Whenever a lengthy report is directed to the screen, the 
program will break the information into smaller sections and off you time to 
read the screen.  You will usually have the opportunity to simply depress 
the RETURN key to continue the report or to enter a Q for quit, to end the 
report.

     In the next section we will make some debit entries.  At this time 
however, you might want to try looking at some of the other reports 
generated by the CUSTOMER LISTING REPORT MENU.  It is recommended that you 
run the option to get COMPLETE INFORMATION, choice 3.

     Since we have no data yet entered into the temporary or permanent file, 
please do NOT select choices 1 through 4 or choice 7 of the REPORT MENU.

     Just a reminder, if you simply depress the RETURN key, you accept what 
is within the < > by default.  Sometimes, when entering information, we find 
that individuals become 'too quick' and tend to hit the RETURN key BEFORE 
THEY COMPLETELY READ OVER THE SCREEN.

     After the screen clears we again see:

     The screen clears and we see the information about BILL BANKER

     You enter the information about BILL BANKER, then call up D. DAWKINS 
and enter his debit transaction.  After doing that reply N when asked for 
another.

     Remember if you simply depress <CR> the value shown in the < > is used.

     This completes the work of simple debit entries.  You can also debit
the various clients by entering an invoice.  Each invoice has room for a
total of 36 entries.  You will enter an item code (the program does nothing
with this value except show it on the invoice), a description, the quantity
and the per item cost.

     You can also enter a SHIP TO address if it is different than the 
client's address.

     OK. Now let us do a couple invoices.

     BILL BANKER buys 6 #3 widgets from us at $5.65 per widget and 12 Widdle 
rings at $1.35 each.  We want to make up an invoice.

     G. GRAND buys 25 Window wedges at $3.45 each, 5 Yeo-yeo pins at $4.59 
each and 3 Toggle bolts at .37 each.  He wants them shipped to W. Parker 
Co., located at 1 Main Street, Another Town, N.Y.  12345.  There will be a 
freight charge of $2.78 and a miscellaneous charge of $1.50 for a phone call 
made with regard to this order.

     Let's enter these two invoices and print them out.  We will assume that 
the first invoice number will be 321.

       It is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that you

 MODERN MICROCOMPUTERS - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES               Auto-Invoices


     NOTE: You should respond Y to the last question.  We might as well 
demonstrate this feature now.

     Three of the customers have a monthly automatic billing amount, Arthur 
Able, Edward Evans, and Frank Fish.  We do not have to enter invoices for 
each of them, we simply indicate that we want these automatic bill amounts 
printed as an invoice (although you don't have to print them if you do not 
intend to send them out), and the automatic amount should be added to the 
temporary file so that it will later show up on the statements.


***************************************************************************
*                                                                         *
*  AUTOMATIC INVOICING TRANSACTIONS                                       *
*                                                                         *
*  DO YOU WANT INVOICES PRINTED (Y OR N) Y<CR>                            *
*                                                                         *
*  Are you using (P)re-printed forms, or,                                 *
*                (B)lank forms            ? B <CR>                        *
*                                                                         *

     We are going to say yes at this point although you may not want to 
print the invoices if you don't intend to send them out.  We also indicate 
that we are using blank forms rather than pre-printed forms.  We want our 
company name and address to print on the forms.


***************************************************************************
*                                                                         *
*  Normally the term 'REGULAR BILLING' will appear on invoices            *
*  which are created using the AUTO-BILLING feature.  You may             *
*  change this to read something else if you would like.  If you          *
*  want to have it read differently, type in what it should read          *
*  using a maximum of 20 characters.  If 'REGULAR BILLING' is O.K.        *
*  then simply depress RETURN <CR>                                        *
*                                                                         *

     The computer now advises us of the last invoice used.


*  The last invoice number used was 322                                   *

     The screen clears

     Although only three of the clients are automatically billed, you
can see how this feature gives you great speed in the billing process
if you have a number of clients who must be billed each month.

     The last command only printed out the invoices prepared by the AUTO-
BILLING feature.  We still have two invoices to print that we entered before 
the auto billing was done.  Select choice 9, PRINT OR VIEW INVOICES

     First we will view the two invoices on the screen and then you can 
print them out.

*  Enter your choice at this time (V, P, or M) V <CR>                     *
*                                                                         *
 


     We now get a choice of viewing any single invoice or all the invoices.  
Since you might have a large number of invoices in the file, you are offered 
a chance to either continue viewing or to quit the viewing process after 
each invoice is shown on the screen.  We want to look at both.


*                                                                         *
*  If you want to view a single customer, type S,                         *
*  If you want to view all the invoices, type A.                          *
*  Enter your choice (S or A) A<CR>                                       *
*                                                                         *


     Both invoices appear, one by one, but without the heading so that the 
information will fit on the screen.  Take a look at each and then return to 
the Master Menu and choose to do this routine over, but indicate that you 
want the invoices printed rather than viewed.  Also get a print out of the 
summaries.  When that is completed continue to the next section.

     After you have printed one copy of the invoices you will have an 
opportunity to print another set of invoices if you so desire.  If you DO 
NOT print another set at this time you will have no other opportunity to do 
so.

     Do you want to print another copy of the invoices (Y or N) N<CR>

     This feature is included for those users who do not want to use carbon 
or N.C.R. type invoices.  In this way you can print duplicate copies.

 

     We again see the Master Menu.

     Well, the debits and invoices have been entered, now let us enter some 
credits.

CO., and $123.74 from BILL BANKER.  This will leave a balance of $4.00 for

is a good chance that a floppy will not hold all the files for back-
up purposes. 

     With this in mind, place a copy of PKXARC.COM and PKXARC.COM
into the ACCT-REC sub-directory.  The batch file called BACKUP.BAT 
will use these two programs to compress the files on to a single
floppy.  There will be room to spare.  The batch file called
RECOVER.BAT will un-compress the files properly.

     When you indicate that you want to make a back up copy of the files a 
number of things happen.  Each of the files containing information are 
compressed into an ARCHIVE file called SAVED.ARC.       

     The SAVED.ARC file is then written to a floppy disk in Drive 'A'.    
Please be sure that you have a correctly formatted blank disk in Drive 'A'. 

NOTE: If you ever have to recover this material, boot the system.  Type 
      ACCT-REC to get to the Master Menu.  Indicate that you are finished 
      for the day.
      Make sure you have the BACK UP floppy in Drive 'A'.  Type RECOVER <CR> 
      and the compressed files will be un-compressed and placed back onto 
      the Hard disk.  MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT TO DO 
      BEFORE DOING IT.  The RECOVER option will OVER-WRITE the files on your 
      Hard drive.

     At this point however, don't bother to recover the information.  
Instead return to the Master Menu and go through the routine a second time, 
but when it comes time to make the back up copy, indicate NO.  The screen 
will clear and you will see the names of each of the clients appear on the 
screen as the temporary information is transferred to the permanent file.  
At this time the temporary file is EMPTIED.

     If we had not printed the Transaction File Report before transferring 
the information, the permanent file would be updated correctly but we would 
have no record of the detail from the transactions.

     Once you transfer information to the permanent file you can no longer 
get a transaction report.  You may decide to make this transfer once a day, 
every few days, once at week, or even once a month.  You can produce a 
transaction report as often as you want but once transferred to the 
permanent file the detail information is lost.

     At this time there are a number of things you might want to do.  You 
may find that running a listing of the permanent file useful.  You might 
want to get a report showing each client and the amount they owe.  This 
report also shows the total outstanding.  The next step, after you get the 
reports, if any, that you want, is to produce your statements.

     At the Master Menu select option 10, PRINT REPORTS, STATEMENTS, LABELS,
and then select option 3 STATEMENTS, from the REPORT MENU.

     If you have not yet done so, get a Permanent File Report which shows 
all the clients and all the data to this point.

     Look over the report and you will see that BILL BANKER shows a service 
charge for $69.88, an invoice number 321 for 53.86 and a credit for -123.74.  
The balance shows is 0.00.  

     At this time the permanent file is holding all the transactions, both 
credits and debits.  What must now be done is to consolidate the master 
file.  During this process the various debits and credits will be updated.

     After consolidating the file, run the permanent file listing again and 
you will see the BILL BANKER shows only a present balance of 0.00.  Note 
that ARTHUR ABLE CO. still shows an outstanding balance on invoice 323 A of 
4.00.

   As you look over the permanent file report you will note that those 
individuals who are billed automatically each month show the letter 'A' 
after the invoice number.

   OK.  Now work you way through to the Permanent File Report, print it out, 
then consolidate the permanent file and finally, print out the Permanent 
File Report a second time.

   When you have finished return to the next page.

     At this point you have essentially run through one month.  Of course, 
you only made a small number of entries but you should have the idea of how 
the system works.

     You might want to get some of the other reports at this time just to 
see what kind of information you can generate.

     You can also try changing data in the permanent file but please heed
the warning which appears on the screen.

     As a final investigation into the system's reports, run the end of year 
report.

     When you have completed all the work you want with regard to this dummy 
company you will want to set everything back to zero and to remove the dummy 
company.

     When you have the Master Menu on the screen, type 15 to quit.  At the 
C> prompt simply type ERASE COMPANY and depress the RETURN key.  This will 
remove the dummy company from the Hard Disk.

     When you next run the programs, you will enter the actual information 
about the actual company for which you plan to keep records.

REMEMBER:  Data goes into a temporary file.
           Invoices are printed from this temporary file.
           Data is transferred to the permanent file.
           Statements and reports are produced from the permanent file.
           The permanent file must be consolidated AFTER statements have
              been sent.
           Month end reports can be printed after consolidation.
