SECTION 4: MASTER FILE ENTRY 4-1

SECTION 4

MASTER FILE ENTRY

INTRODUCTION
The master file entry procedures are used to create and maintain the database. All initial system
data is entered following the methods detailed in this section. The data item menu screens are
accessed via the master file entry menu [fmntmenu], displayed via the main menu. A sample
[fmntmenu] screen follows.
Some master file entry procedures are used more frequently than others. For example, keyholder
data is usually added, changed, and deleted daily. On the other hand, additions or changes to
system configuration information may occur only once every several months.

Screen Access

The procedures in this section are in the order as they appear on the [fmntmenu] screen (above).
Following each menu entry are the associated subscreens, again in order (the section table of
contents reflects the hierarchy). After the current screen has been saved (F6), most subscreens
display by pressing F2 but some display automatically.
