Editing and Navigation

Records are groups of data which pertain to a

specific customer or function. Each customer for

example, has a single account record, holding their

current balance, aging, opening balance, etc. When

you view a customer in a window such as

Customer Information, the screen is filled with one

record worth of data.

Some Windows show your data in lists, where

more than one record is visible on screen at once. A

good example is the Payments Window. Using the

keys on this type of form usually causes the cursor

to move up or down the screen to the selected

record.

You should think of your files as lists of customers.

The commands in this section will move you up or

down the list, allow you to change data on a line in

the list, or forget the changes you have made to a

line (record) on the list.

Next button

Moves you to your next customer or item

displayed. If you are at the bottom of your file, the

command is ignored.

Prev button

this command is ignored.

Edit button

When you f irst open a data f ile, it normally is

presented in a viewing mode only. This is to

prevent inadvertent keystrokes from changing or

deleting your data. The program also operates

quicker when you only view your data. Selecting

Edit Mode allows you to change the data on the

screen, but it also "locks" the information so no one

else can make changes to the same Customer

(record) until you are through with your own

changes for the customer.

Insert button

This selection places a blank record for you to

begin entering new information on. It is normally

used when you wish to add new customers, new

services, tickets, etc. You must be in edit mode to

use this feature.

Delete button

This selection will permanently delete the customer

or data record currently in view or highlighted on

your list. Use it sparingly, as the only way to

recover deleted information is to retype it or copy it

from your backup files. You must be in edit mode

to use this feature.

Enter the date for when the commission period

expires. The commission period is based on

company policy, but in general, it is a length of

time for which the customer must remain with your

company. If the customer cancels before the

commission period expires, a report is generated.

(See commission reports).

Service (Pick List)

This is a drop down list of your available services.

Available services are entered in the Services

Window via the LISTS menu choice. You must

pick from the list as typing in new entries not on

the list will not be accepted by the program. Use

Alt-Down Arrow to view all selections available.

service. If your grass trea tment costs .01 cents /Sqft,

enter ".01" in this block. If your fertilizer sells for

8.95/bag, enter "8.95" in this block. As a default,

Cost/Application (Cost/App Number)

This is a calculated field which may be overridden

by you. The calculation is normally (SQFT/UNITS

* UNIT COST)* (1+ %TAX-%DISC). It is

designed to give you an idea of what you should

charge your customer for service. It does not take

into account other factors which may increase or

decrease the total cost of the service, which is why

you are allowed to type over the computed amount

and enter your own if necessary.

Total (Computed)

This is the total cost for a service for a years period.

It is the calculation of TOTAL APP*COST/APP.

Billing Information

There are generally two dif ferent ways in which to

bill you customers. One is Balance due, where a

customer pays for services as they occur. The other

is CONTRACT billing, where a customer pays

over a given period of time for services which may

occur as little as once per year. In reality,

CONTRACT billing extends credit to your

customers. An example of CONTRACT billing is

where a customer receives a once a year flea

treatment at a cost of $240 .00, but pays monthly

$20.00 for the next year (12*$20.00=$240.00).

Pay Plan (Pick List)

Select a plan from this list of how you wish to bill

your customer. The computer will automatically

look up the number of billing periods/year from

your BILLING List (See LISTS) and divide your

Total (from above) by this number. If your billing

plan is "Bal Due" (used for balance due or pay as

you go customers), no calculation occurs.

Bill Amount (Calculated)

If the billing periods/year are not "0", this number

is normally the Total for the year divided by the

Billing periods/year. If you are billing your

customer on a balance due basis, with a period of

0, the Cost/App amount is entered here. Again, you

may override these calculations and enter your own

amount if you wish.

Bill Months (123456789OND)

Enter a month for when you want to have

CONTRACT bills automatically sent to your

customers. If you want to have your customers

billed monthly, enter"123456789OND" to produce

a contract bill for each month of the year. For

Quarterly billing, enter "147O" or whatever months

you wish to bill. Balance Due billing or other

billings methods with Periods/year set to "0" ignore

this field, and will automatically bill whenever a

service requiring payment is performed. PLEASE

NOTE THAT THE BILLING PERIODS AFFECT

ONLY BILLING, AND HAVE NOTHING TO

Scheduling Services

The Schedule Service Window allows you to

quickly schedule services for groups of customers

or a single customer. When a field in the form is

filled out, the Contracts file is searched for

matching information, and those customer records

that do match are added to the Service Ticket f ile

for printing and processing.

This window is a query form. Query forms accept

partial da ta and search database files for matches to

your "Question".

For Example, if the only entry you placed in the

Schedule Service Window was a "Lawn Spray"

service in the Service field area, any Contract

which had a service field entry of "Lawn Spray"

would be scheduled. If you were to place a

customer's ID number in the ID field area along

with "Lawn Spray" in the Service field, the Contact

file would be searched for records which match the

customer's ID field and Service field, thus

scheduling "Lawn Spray" for only the specific

customer listed in the ID field.

As another example, suppose you wanted to

schedule all "Household Pest" services for a service

route named "01", which needed to be serviced in

the 2nd week of August. You would select

"Household Pest" for the Service field, enter "01"

in the Route f ield, enter "8" in the Service Month

field, and a "2" in the Service Week field.

Please note that if no entries are made in the

Schedule Service Window that no services will be

scheduled for anyone. At a minimum, one field

entry is required for a search to be initiated.

ID (Numbers or Letters)

Service Type (Numbers or Letters)

Enter a unique description for the type of service

you wish to offer.

when you want to refer to the Service type without

using the descriptive name. It sometimes will

appear on forms where there is insufficient room

for the entire name.

Unit Cost (Number)

Enter the cost/unit of sale for your Service Type.

For example, if you charge $75.00 for a termite

inspection, its unit cost is $75.00. If you charge

$0.02 per sqf t to spray a lawn with dursban, the

unit cost is $0.02. Unit costs are important because

they are used by other parts of the program, such as

calculating the total cost of a customer's contrac t in

the Contract and Services Window.

periodic billing cycle. Enter 0 for this type of

customer. All other types of billing p lans should

have a number greater than or equal to 1. For

example, if you have a customer who wishes to be

billed 12 times a year for his termite inspection,

create a monthly billing plan with 12 periods/year.

Be careful though. If you have a customer with

Monthly yard service and he pays when the service

is completed, assign him to a � Bal Due � pay plan

with 0 periods/year. Under this method he will be

billed only when the services are completed. If you

assigned him to a Monthly payment plan instead,

he would be billed 12 times a year even though the

services may not occur (for whatever reason).
