ENTERING DATA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Follow these guidelines when completing the fields in a prompt:

You may use uppercase or lowercase letters in your entries. In the examples in this manual, entries are usually shown lowercase. On your screen, almost all entries appear as uppercase, even if you typed lowercase letters.

Some field entries can be numbers or special characters. In some fields, such as the Business Name, you indicate spaces with an underscore.

Press [ F8 ] (labeled Enter Data) or [ ] when you finish typing your response. This tells the PC to process the data you have entered. The cursor can be in any field when you press [ F8 ] or [ ] . The instructions in this manual usually tell you to press [ F8 ] after your last entry in a prompt. You may press either [ F8 ] or [ ] , however.
