Function keys have been programmed to help you move quickly within the packages. MC provides a templet as a reference for the various keys. To use a function key, press the Shift key, the Control key, and/or function key (simultaneously). This is represented by a <SF>, <SCF>, or <F>. Please note from the templet the function key levels that apply to other MC OFFICE Software packages.

ARROW KEYS ( ---> )

The arrow keys, located between the typewriter keys and the ten-key adding machine keys, move the cursor in the direction of the arrow. Only certain screens use this function; most data entry screens do not recognize these keys.

AUTO FIELDS

Date, state, and ZIP Code fields are automatic advance fields.

In date fields, the date is entered as numerals. For example: February 1, 2005, would be entered as 02-01-05 (MM-DD-YY). The program alphabetizes the month when spelled out. As the date is entered, the cursor automatically advances to the next position.

Do not enter commas in dollar fields. Furthermore, it is unnecessary to enter the cents (.00) in dollar fields when entering whole numbers. When an amount includes cents, enter the cents as usual. The program will automatically enter the .00 after pressing <NL>.

PARENTHESES

Parentheses on a screen are for informational purposes. If a number is within the parentheses, it is for information. If nothing is within the parentheses, it is for a code to be entered.

PATH

The path under the screen display shows which numbers on the menu are selected to arrive at the screen being displayed. A period ( . ) is used as a break between selections. The path is used to assist the user in moving from screen to screen, and should be used like a road map, e.g. (03.01.<S>).

PERIOD ( . )

A period at the end of an input field indicates the character length of the field.

STOPPING THE SYSTEM

The programs do not permit shortcuts. The <ESC> and <F1> function keys are used only when shown on the screen. Each terminal should be properly logged off when completed prior to shutting down the system.
