*08/11/09 - (225) Added editing of Daily Totals for ROA and Late Charge for the individual operators.

*07/20/09 - (221) The Next and Prior buttons in Account Lookup, under certain circumstances (like when you use it) if you get to the first or last account in the database file - it would fail if you tried to access one more account.

*06/18/09 - (217) Moved the Download Help button to the top middle of the Utility Menu - Main Menu - Utilities - Download Latest Help File for THIS COMPUTER ONLY button.

*04/24/09 - (216) Well, in one of those rare moments of insight, I finally figured out that since I turn on your caps lock as you go into the program, it would be AWFULLY NICE of me to turn it off as you leave, either by the Exit button on the Main Menu or the Update Button on the Main Menu.

*04/14/09 - (215) There is now a box in Special Functions (Main Menu - Utilities - Special Functions - Update Help File for THIS COMPUTER ONLY) that will load onto that one computer the latest help file. YOU MUST do this at EACH COMPUTER on the network.

*03/25/09 - (214)  Added capability to screen Reminder Notices by Zip Code or Section. BE CAREFUL - There are some logical problems. YOU MUST keep track of which Sections or Zip Codes you have printed.

*03/16/09 - (213) When you go into the Special Reminder screen, (Account on Screen - View Options - Print 1 Reminder) turns off the Caps Lock while you are on this screen so you can type a normal letter. 

*01/30/09 - (212) Sometimes it would not include the Zero On Hand items in the Count Lists if told to. It works correctly now.

*01/16/09 - (211) Added Zipcode screen for certain lists in print accounts collection - counter - both aging lists - done on Pick Printer screen.

*01/08/09 - (210) Oddly enough Print Accounts now has a list to print the Paid Ahead accounts. Some relatively smart people were paying their accounts ahead and then skipping town, thus giving themselves some lead time to disappear. Odd but true.

*12/18/08 - (209) On Lookup Screen - new button that will show an onscreen graph of the INSTALLMENT accounts receivable aging - Based on PAYMENTS DUE. If they are paid ahead, I show it as one payment in CURRENT.

*12/03/08 - (208) Fixed bug in changing the sensitive password.

*10/20/08 - (206) Increased the length of the Manufacturer's # and Description fields on the Inventory Count List Menu printouts.

*06/25/08 - (200) You have to ASK for this one - Added Option on the Negotiate Menu (hidden unless you ask for it) to print a delivery ticket instead of using a contract copy as the delivery ticket. The reason is that the contract has SS#s and other private info that you may not want the delivery guys to have access to.

*06/17/08 - (199) Added code to Scan Customer File for Bad Data in utilities to scan also the detail file doing a cleanup function.

*06/04/08 - (198) You can now any number of one up inventory labels on your Okidata printer to stick on your hang tags.

*03/27/08 - (191)  Reminder Notices now print Dear Mr or MS Lastname if there is a title else they print Dear Firstname Lastname

*03/14/08 - (190) On the Cash Sale screen bottom left is a box that lets you change how many copies of the sale will be printed. On the Small Add-On screen, you can put in delivery instructions that will be printed on the Small Add-On ticket.

*03/07/08 - (189) Now, if you make the account number ADJUSTMENT when you are adding an inventory transaction, it becomes an adjustment entry and will NOT print in the Sales Analysis (unless you tell it to) and will not be in the Inventory Stat Screen statistics.

*02/11/08 - (187) If you did not put terms on a TSN account, it would error out when you looked up the account. This fixes that.

*02/01/08 - (186) Under certain conditions, on the account card, the Months Left field was incorrect. This fixes that.

*01/22/08 - (185) STOPS IT FROM PRINTING Or Current Resident on mailing labels unless you tell me to make it print that on them. DEFAULT is NOT TO PRINT IT NOW.

*12/19/07 - (182) It can now report TSNR accounts to the credit bureau based on date of last payment. You have to call to get this one.

*12/17/07 - (181) If you hover over the version number date on the Main Menu, it will now tell you the purpose (more or less) of this update.

*12/11/07 - (179) Well, after all these years, someone found a way to make the salestax miscalculate by a penny on the post hand sales. This fixes this.

*10/15/07 - (178) When you are adding Non A/R Mailing List entries, if you put in a valid account number, it will automatically fill in what fields it can.

*10/09/07 - (177) On certain inventory reports, added ability to print the amounts in any single warehouse as the onhand. It also totals it at the end.

*08/21/07 - (175) On certain printers, when printing the receipt, the Thank You line appeared on the store copy and not the customers copy. DUH. Sorry about that. This fixes it.

*08/17/07 - (174) Under some circumstances, the TSNR Monthly statements were not adding a comment when a statement was sent.

*07/18/07 - (172) Added payout amount to the Dump Accounts for Sale in the Special Functions screen.

*06/13/07 - (170) Adds code for another type of recovery of the Payment (Detail.mdb) file in Special Functions.

*05/29/07 - (169) Fixes a problem that in some cases the Transactions Journal #2 would not print out the property insurance.

*04/19/07 - (167) On the inventory stat screen - it will now let you put in a date to scan back to. That is the good news. The BAD news is that it scans the entire transaction file every time you change the date - so please be patient.

*04/12/07 - (166) In name lookup, if you checked the show zero balance box with no text in the name lookup box (at top) it errored. This fixes that.

*04/09/07 - (165) This will print the serial numbers on certain inventory reports (the 1st four) if you tell it to.

*04/02/07 - (164) The cash sales on the entries on the transactions journal part 2 had trouble with the total. This fixes that.

*02/15/07 - (162) From Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Spec | Sensitive Info - you can change what the next cash sale ticket number will be.

*02/02/07 - (160) The Monthly Report in Checkup was not printing the amount for credit card money. It does now.

*01/26/07 - (159) Misc. Receipt of money (sales menu) will now take a minus amount.

*01/16/07 - (158) The Down Payment Receipt will now record the operator number on the transactions journal.

*01/09/07 - (156) You can now edit the types of money collected (cash, credit card, money order, etc) in the daily totals.

*12/04/06 - (152) The Please Align form (the one right before you print something) has been reworked to fit better on an 800x600 screen.

*11/14/06 - (151) REALLY obscure bug alert (or why programmers have so little hair). IF you have a LEGITIMATE birthday on the 29th of February (say 02/29/1964) then IF your contract prints the age on the form, it fails with a type mismatch error. This fixes that. I figure it is roughly a 1 in 1461 chance of it happening, but somebody out there just had it happen. I'm going to crawl into my warm cuddly place now where no one is born on the 29th of February.

*11/06/06 - (150) - The process for adding comments to an account has been streamlined. When you click on add comments, you will get a screen where you can type in a new comment as before, BUT you can now post multiple comments to the same account without leaving that screen. Try it, you'll like it.

*10/04/06 - (148) This gives you a dump comma delimited ascii file option on the non ar mailing lists. The filename is NONARMAIL.DAT probably on the M: Drive.
The fields are: Last Name  | First Name | Street Address One | Street Address Two | City | State | Zipcode

*09/06/06 - (146) YOU MUST RUN THE PROGRAM WITH NO ONE ELSE RUNNING RIGHT AFTER YOU DOWNLOAD THIS. It adds fields to the customer database file for the customer's email address on Info Page 1 during Account Lookup and Customer Info during Negotiate. Please be SURE you have plenty of time before you download this. It could take SEVERAL minutes to add the fields. When it gets to the Main Menu it is finished and you may do what you wish.

*08/28/06 - (145) Main Menu | Utilities | Change system Spec | Bottom right - What type tag - If you put a 1 in the box, the computer will print a completed filled out tag for your inventory instead of on a preprinted one. It will print the tag in the upper left of a normal sheet of paper, which you can then fold into quarters and stick in a normal hang tag. If you use colored paper, you should be able to get just about any look you want.

*08/22/06 - (144) Main Menu | Utilities | Special Functions | Dump Ascii Accounts for Sale will give you the list for a company wishing to buying your accounts. The file name to get to them is CUSFILEDUMP.DAT on the M: Drive. You will probably need to email him with this file as an attachment. The fields it will dump are  | Account Number | Last Name | First Name | Date Last Payment | Date Next Payment would be due according to how much they have paid on the contract. | Normal Monthly Payment | Months Left on Contract | Original Principal | Current Balance | Due Current | Due Thirty | Due Sixty | Due Ninety and Over | Late Charge Due now.

*08/02/06 - (143) Adds Total of Payments field to Insurance Report line listing.

*07/31/06 - (142) Fixes a small problem figuring invoice cost in receiving invoicing.

*07/21/06 - (141) Rewrites the backup files for wspec and wextradata when you leave the Change Specifications form (specchange).

*06/07/06 - (140) Fixed a small problem with how freight was calculated in receiving invoicing.

*05/30/06 - (138) The automatic version check feature - version 134 below - caused an error if the PLH Inc. website was down. This is fixed in that if it cannot find the website it will go to the Main Menu in about 45 seconds or so.

*05/25/06 - (136) WooHoo we can now FTP a data file back up to the PLH Website in case of trouble. It may not seem like much now, but if you ever need it, you will smile.

*05/15/06 - (135) If you are using slot locking during contract writing, there is a now a button in MM | Utilities | Special Functions called Unlock Slot Store Lock. Use this if it ever locks in error.

*05/11/06 - (134) Made it auto check for a more recent update through the web. THIS ONLY WORKS WELL if you have high speed internet service (NOT DIALUP). If you turn this on Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Spec. put a Y into Auto Check Web for Updates box, the program will put a yellow box on the Main Menu when a newer version of the program exists for you to download. To TURN THIS OFF - Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Spec | Change Auto Check for Update to N for no. 

*05/08/06 - (133) Made the CBI Reporting functions stubbornly refuse to go on if any of the CBI Constants Screen is blank.

*05/05/06 - (132) Put the rotating line thingie on screen while building the Inventory and Customer Stats. WooHoo

*04/26/06 - (131) Lined up the numbers in Name Lookup (AR) screen

*04/12/06 - (129) In certain cases (like every time you tried to use it) the Inventory Exception Report would fail. (prints items not sold in a given number of months). This has been fixed. Sorry about that.

*03/24/06 - (126) Gives you the option of printing (or not) the zero on hand items in inventory printing. Option Box on Please Align (pick printer) form.

*03/16/06 - (125) Gave more room for the Totals on the Invoice Date List.

*02/24/06 - (121) Adds code to total the OnFloor and Warehouses cost on the inventory totalup.

*02/14/06 - (119) We have decided to add a GENTLE reminder if the version number (it's really a date) is more than 120 days old. If you don't like being reminded, gives us a call and it will go away.

*02/08/06 - (118) If you look at MM | Utilities | Rebuild Databases - you will notice that there is a compact option for every database now. This does the rebuild/repair and ALSO takes out the dead space created when items are deleted. This MAY, POSSIBLY, I THINK MIGHT, PERHAPS make it run faster. No promises, but it might just help, especially with Cusfile, Detail, Stock and Trans.

*02/03/06 - (117) Gives you the option of locking the slots during printing contracts etc. There have been occasions where the computer appears to store something in a slot but it disappears or goes into another slot etc etc. This should take care of this. SEE HERE for how to use it.

*02/01/06 - (116) Changed the way the insurance report clears. This will zero it correctly (under all circumstances) at the end of the month.

*01/30/06 - (115) Gives you the ability to add 2 lines of messages on TSNR statements (at bottom of statement.)

*01/17/06 - (114) Makes the inventory cost and selling prices go up to $999,999.99

*12/23/05 - (112) PLEASE READ THIS FIRST! It will now automatically suggest the next account number.

*12/19/05 - (111) Cash Sale Delivery Date will let you leave it as a blank field. Before you HAD to put in a valid date to get off field.

*12/12/05 - (110) Adds a Birthday List Button on print accounts screen. Asks for what month and prints a list of accounts with DOB of that month.

*12/06/05 - (109) Adds a button in the inventory screen to take you to lookup another sku without having to go through a menu.

*12/01/05 - (108) The program will now reset the system short date to MM/DD/YYYY format automatically. I THINK this will decrease the error 13 type mismatch occurrences dramatically.

*11/23/05 - (107) On the end of day totals the cash sale merchandise and sales tax are totaled for a cash sales total.

*11/03/05 - (105) During Negotiate process, if you enter an illegal purchase or 1st payment date (such as 11/31/2005 - only 30 days in November) it will make the date appear rose colored and will not let you leave the date until it is correct.

*11/02/05 - (104) You may or may not like this (you CAN disable it but THINK FIRST). Anyway with this version if you leave an account card on the screen with NO MOUSE ACTIVITY for about 1 minute, the account will automatically file itself away and the lookup menu will appear. This is REALLY USEFUL preventing lockups from the computer trying to look up the same account on more than one computer. To DISABLE IT, Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Spec. | Upper Right Corner | Timer to leave account - set it to N

*10/31/05 - (103) Oops - Under certain rare but doable circumstances, if you were editing an entry in the NON A/R mailing lists, it would not edit the entry you were trying to fix, but would instead add another entry. This will not happen now.

*10/21/05 - (102) This adds a button on the options page to duplicate an account. (Account Lookup Screen - View Options - Left side of screen - Duplicate Core Account Info). This will create an account with a new number (which you have to give it) but the old core information (name address etc.) (NO MONEY). It will not let you add if the account number you type in already exists on the computer.

*10/19/05 - (100) Adds a button to bottom of inventory screen to let you print a one up mailing type label label for your inventory item. Use this to stick on your normal hang tag.

*10/14/05 - (97)  Adds capability to automatically add cash sales written to mailing list number 5. To implement go to Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Specifications | put a Y in the Add Cash Sales to Mailing List 5 box (top middle sort of). If you put a Y here, from then on when you do a cash sale, the name and address will be added to mailing list 5. It will NOT add blank names or Duplicate (at least I hope not) names.

*10/10/05 - (96) Adds automatic departmental markups to receiving invoicing. To implement go to Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Specifications | put a Y in the Use Department Markups Box (lower right).

*08/17/05 - (93) You now have a lookup by street address fragment. Main Menu | Account Lookup | Lookup by Street Address. Put in part or all of a street address - click search - and watch what hapens.

*08/08/05 - (92) When you start to do a Vendor Printout you will have an option nn the Please Choose A Printer screen to screen out for a given department and vice versa on the Department Printout.

*08/02/05 - (90) This gives you one more list (List L on Print Accounts) that lets you input a status (upper right on account card) and then will print a list of those accounts. This is most useful for a list of NS (No Statement) accounts.

*07/29/05 - (89) Negotiate Screen | Customer Info | now gives you a button to access info page two to add more stuff to the account. | The TSNR statements should now add a reminder to the account card.

*07/26/05 - (88) Good old Microsoft. One of the latest Internet Explorer Update Patches messes up the Help System I am using. This will fix it.

*07/25/05 - (87) Main Menu - Other Printing - Special Letter - you can type in text and then send it to everyone or with various selections.

*06/01/05 - We will be on vacation in July (10th -24th). I THINK this will be the solid last version till after the vacation time.

*05/26/05 - There seems to be some misunderstanding on how to charge off an account. On the latest version of the program there is a help button on the Take Payment Screen (the one that actually lets you print the receipt). The help button will explain what happens on a charge off receipt.

*05/25/05 (78) Caps Lock is now FORCED ON when you launch the program. | The customer aging grid was not spacing correctly if you printed it - it works correctly now.

*05/20/05 - If you have the problem that when you click the print the card button with an account on the screen the middle (payments of comments) prints SOLID BLACK, please scroll down to the bottom of this screen and download the Zipped Older Flexgrid update and it should work fine. YOU MUST DO THIS ON EVERY COMPUTER INDIVIDUALLY that prints incorrectly. 

*05/17/05 (76) Daily totals figures formatting made larger so those of you with really big numbers can see all of them.

*05/04/05 (74) Transactions File Editor Added.

*04/29/05 (73) This one may be kind of neat. On the lookup menu you now have an options for a Customer Aging Screen. Please LOOK HERE for instructions which you should probably print out. This is aimed at helping with collections.

*04/19/05 (72) We now use the letter E to designate rEpos. This will be used in the credit bureau reporting. See HERE for more info

*04/08/05 (69) Added a list to inventory that prints out all 4 selling prices. 

*04/06/05 (68) The customer's name now appears on the take payment screen (one last check to be sure you are writing a receipt to whom you intended). Also - this one is cute - in lookup by name, if you have a street address that is too long, the left side (the start of the address) would disappear - now the end of the address disappears.

04/05/05 (67)
*I don't know how I forgot this one but - tada - you now have a Failure to Make the 1st Payment list. If they miss the 1st payment on a new account it shows up on the list after the are past due 11 days or more.

04/04/05 (65)
*This makes the Monthly Report prints all the categories that are applicable from the daily report. Duh - sorry about that. (was missing late charge collected and SAs)

03/17/05 (61)
*It is IMPORTANT that you NOT launch the program more than once at any one computer at the same time. This will keep you from doing that.

03/16/05 (60)
*Some of you have had a problem with a input past end at the start of the program. There is now a fix in place. If you have a problem at startup, please give us a call. It is very easy to repair this now.

02/28/05
*Made room on front of account card for the zip code to appear.

02/21/05
*Many of the lists and things like the reminders will now ask what account number to start on (OR - on which account number to start - if you are an English Major).

01/31/05
*WooHoo - Many of you have wanted the ability to print the screen in windows. Well you have it (sort of). On certain selected screens (like the primary payment screen) you now have a button that will print the screen to the printer. It will say Print Screen on the button. It will ask you which printer to send it to and then print it. This works MUCH BETTER on a laser than on a dot matrix. If you want a laugh - give the dot matrix a try. Wear hearing protection. Trust me. If you have any requests for additional screens to print, please let me know.

12/16/04
*On the Main Menu will be an automatic link (I HOPE) to your particular website for downloading the updates.

11/26/04
*You have a NEW LIST. In print account lists, there is now a list of accounts who have not paid since a date you input. The account must have a balance and owe you money to make it onto the list.

11/16/04
*On receipt writing screen - Current and New Balance are shown. In your mailing lists (both A/R and Non-AR) you have an option to use 3 up labels on a laser printer. This is MUCH faster and more accurate than 1up tractor feed labels. The Bad Customer Data scan screen is now more user friendly (it could hardly have been less friendly). If you get a list in inventory by a single vendor or department - the cost total is printed at the end of the list. This contains the START of the new format of credit bureau reporting.

06/18/04
*Delete button added to Non AR Mailing lists so you can get someone off a list.

05/12/04
*Added the Section Field Info to the front of the card (near the city state zip stuff). Changed a button in Negotiate that will let you get to a Zero Finance Charge with one click instead of having to enter a zero rate. In some states entering a zero rate did not get you to a zero finance charge. (the computer thought it knew better than you did what you wanted.)

05/05/04
*Added an IQ (inquiry flag) function on an account card. To flag an account put the letters   IQ   as the first two letters in the comment field right above the payment lines. When you leave the comment line the payments box will turn a lovely rose shade indicating a problem with this account. Normally you would use the comment like this ->   IQ They did not sign their contract at last sale       OR      IQ - NEVER EVER EVER take a check from this person    OR   IQ whatever.
*Also added there is a form for filling out and printing purchase orders. Give it a try and give me some feedback if you feel so inclined.

04/15/04
*Happy income tax day yall. Anyway - bunches of stuff. If you look in Utilities - Set Various Rates screen, you will see that you can input minimum amounts for the insurances and finance charge. This means that if your minimum is $3.00 and the computed amount is $2.50 the computer will charge the $3.00 minimum. For refunds you can set the minimum amount to be refunded. That means if for instance the minimum refund is set to $1.00 and the computed refund is $.90 then the refund will be $0.00. The set various rates screen is passworded now with the sensitive password, if you have that set.
*Also - there is now an inventory stat screen. You can see it HERE. If you are using the inventory YOU WANT TO USE THIS - trust me.

03/01/04
*It will now assign the next sku number automatically in adding new skus. For this to work YOU MUST do the following. Go to Main Menu | Utilities | Change System Spec | Sensitive Info (bottom middle) | then on the screen that comes up (after the password screen if applicable) - put in a number into the field for the next sku number.

02/20/04
*I have arbitrarily decided to ignore accounts whose purchase date is more than 9 years old on the credit bureau reporting. I think this is valid because of various credit reporting problems etc. Please let me know if you have a problem with this concept.

02/17/04
*Added code so that when you are about to put a sale in a slot, you have the option of immediately posting the account without storing it in a slot. Also to go along with this, the screen for posting in the slot has an option to write the Down Payment receipt. This money will go into the operator totals and collected DPs.

01/22/04
*Added a receipt type during writing receipts (like return repo discount allowance) that lets you designate a that you are writing a receipt to Charge Off an account. Posts to daily totals and transaction report.

01/20/04
*Various small improvements. The NonAR Mailing Lists are getting better. There is an Option G on Sales Menu that lets you receive money and print a receipt for it for miscellaneous dollars. There is an entry for it on the daily totals sheet.

12/04/03
*This is a good one folks. When you go to post a slotted sale, you now have the option of choosing which slot to post from a list (see 10/23/03 below). Also, it will tell you what account number is in the slot verses what slot number you are trying to post to. Trust me, if they are different (the yellow boxes on the next screen) you need to think hard about posting this sale. Try it, it is easier to do it than explain it.

11/21/03
*This version corrects a minor problem with the comments. If you had an account number of 12345 and an account number of 1234, at times the comments for 1234 would show up on 12345. Also fixed a problem with the slot list read in negotiate. If you chose a slot that had a problem with the load, the program would drop you to windows.

11/20/03
*There are now options in the mailing list programs to dump the A/R mailing list to ascii files, along with just being able to print the labels. See this page for more info. Also, the Credit Bureau reporting is there (in utilities) and apparently works ok. YOU CANNOT USE THIS UNTIL YOU GET WITH ME to set it up. It will report bad stuff and will not work correctly until we set it up together.

11/06/03
*Well - nothing like missing the obvious. Inventory Printing now lets you print or not print the cost and exclude or not exclude the Zero on Hand Items. Also, the payment book works (after a fashion I must add) with plain paper.

10/23/03
*Ok Folks - most of you will love this one (I think). In negotiate there is a new button that lets you recall a slot by a list of slots on the screen. You just click on the line of the slot you want and it loads. The list is sorted first by account number for add-ons and for new sales alpha by last name. So, you get the addons first then after them the new sales appear in alpha order. THE TOP LINE of the list lets you bail out without loading anything. If you have more than about 30 or so in storage, there will be a scroll bar on the right side which you can click and drag to move up and down the list. Please call me if you have any problems or suggestions. Also on any new sales put into storage, the dollar amount of the sale will be nicely formatted with a $ at the beginning when you look it up. This makes it much easier to read

09/04/03
*If you look in Set Various Rates in Utility or Set Rates in Negotiate, you will find a box for the Maximum Credit Life Age. This is needed in some states. If you have a 0 there, it does NOT check. If you put in an age it will screen the Purchaser's DOB for this age. REMEMBER PLEASE that the age should take into account that if the cross the cap age during the contract, the stuff is NOT COVERED ANY MORE !!!!!. So if you write 2 year maximum length contracts and the cap is 71 - set the cap in the program to 69.

05/27/03
*Code added to check the Purchase Date and Date of 1st payment just before the A/R is updated in Post Sales. If the dates are not legit at this point you are prompted to correct them.

05/22/03
*Oops - the reminder notices have been ignoring promise to pay dates. Sorry about that - this is now fixed.

05/21/03
*Cash sales update!. It will now create a zero balance account if you give it an account number now available in the upper left corner of the cash sale screen. ALSO if you put an EXISTING account number in that space (upper left) it will look up the name and address etc of the person and fill that in for you. ALSO again - when you post the sale (either printing or not printing) the account will update lines for a cash sale in the detail (middle) section. THE BALANCE will NOT change. THIS IS A CASH SALE. Please get all the money. If you do not bad things will happen. If you need to CHARGE part of the sale, go to post hand sales and do it there and print a charge ticket for it.

05/20/03
*Inventory will give you a way to print a generic large tag. You can actually edit the Late Charge on the monthly totals - duh - sorry about that.

01/16/03
*Inventory has been changed to allow you to use groups. In the middle of the screen on the inventory sku page, there is a Group box. If you put a Y in that box (making this item a group sku) another box will appear right there allowing you to edit the list of the skus that make up that group. You put in a quantity and a sku for up to 15 items and then when you sell the GROUP sku the computer will post off the skus you list and their quantities. When you do a totalup of skus, the Group skus ARE NOT IN THE TOTAL - only the underlying skus. HOWEVER - when you do a Sales Analysis, the GROUP sku is the one use to figure profit. Think about it, the we really don't know what we are selling the background skus for if they are sold in a group. 

01/08/03
*Inventory totalup now splits out each individual department cost and sell total.

01/06/03
*This adds a delete button to the inventory screen. The password is the same for deleting an account.

11/14/02
*You can now determine whether or not an individual workstation can write a receipt. Go to MM - Utilities - Change System Spec - (NEW button) - Sensitive Info - and change the YES to NO and this terminal will NOT be able to write a receipt. You can change it back at any time to make it able to write receipts.

11/08/02
*Cash sale - the ticket number now prints on the cash sale invoice - duh - also 
*There is a place for a salesperson's name on the cash sale form which then prints out on the cash sale ticket.
*When you post a sale - a line has been added to the comment file to show the date of the sale and the salesperson's name

10/30/02
*The inventory lookup by Vendor would choke when you got near the end of the alphabet for a starting letter.

10/21/2002
*2003 due date really messed things up. Nice to be due your whole contract before it started. This is fixed.
*Inventory lookup by vendor was messing up if you backed out all or the letters and started over.

10/10/2002
*Fixed the exit from the payment screen to not fuss about a DPWRITTEN line. It would tell you the balance does not match. Now it correctly ignores it.

10/04/2002
*BE SURE PLEASE to look at Change System Spec - MM - Utility - Change System Spec - and look in lower part and lower right. There will be a bunch of stuff new. 
    They are at lease the following - 
    1. Conversion Source - ignore that one - we use it to help you convert over from our DOS system.
    2. Print TSN Statements BEFORE due date (Y or N) - blank means no - this will print a statement to TSNR accounts who are within 31 days of coming due at the time statements are run. 
    3. Stop During Receipt (Y or N) - blank means No - Controls whether the computer tries to stop during the receipt process to let you tear off the top copy. ONLY WORKS ON DOT MATRIX PRINTERS.
    4. Figure TSN from Purchase or Due date. (P or D) - for example a Ninety Day account - determines if it sends the statement 90 days AFTER the (P)urchase date or immediately after the (D)ue date. Clear as mud? - call David.

10/02/02
*Inventory Lists now total at end of lists.
*The inventory screen has next and previous buttons like the accounts screen.
*On the Negotiate Inventory Screen - if you try to sell more than you have on hand, the current number on hand field (also new) goes to red.

09/30/02
*Counter List | Account Order # List | Given Starting Letter List - all will let you include the zero balance account when you choose a printer - default is no. Let me know if there is a great groundswell of desire to have this option on more lists.
*Change System Spec. - now has 2 new options in lower right corner.
        1. Print TSN Statements BEFORE due date (Y or N) - blank means no - this will print a statement to TSNR accounts who are within 31 days of coming due at the time statements are run. 
        2. Stop During Receipt (Y or N) - blank means No - Controls whether the computer tries to stop during the receipt process to let you tear off the top copy. ONLY WORKS ON DOT MATRIX PRINTERS.

08/27/02
*Collection List - has a field added at end of 1st line that adds the amount due and late charge to give you a total due.
*Receipt Printing - adds Total Collected - Total Late Charge - Total ROA to store copy of the receipt
*Cash Sale now automatically assigns a ticket number to the ticket number box

08/22/2002
*Fixed error in entering A&H rates. Would bump out with an error if you hit enter between items.

08/20/2002
*Fixed a refunding problem in post hand sales.

08/12/2002 
*Made the fields bigger for the company name city etc. in Utilities | Change System Spec.
*Post Hand Sales has a new button that lets you clear the data on the screen except for the account number. This is used if you are adding a new account and it gets to an existing account number first.
*Insurance Report printing incorrectly under certain conditions fixed.

08/09/2002 
*Changed the Collection list to remove any account that does not start with a number. | Changed the scan for bad data function (utilities off main menu) to be much more strict. (It will now catch things like a 06/31/2002 due date etc (there are not 31 days in June etc.))

07/25/2002 
*Added a functionality to print account info button (options with account on screen) to print out payment history and comments.
