- GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR MEDLIN ACCOUNTING SHAREWARE
-
-
- This disk contains the five programs of the Medlin
- Accounting Shareware System:
-
- PC-GL Double Entry General Ledger
- PC-AR Accounts Receivable
- PC-PR Payroll Writing
- PC-AP Accounts Payable
- PCINV Invoice Writing
-
- Registration is $25 for the PCINV program and $35 for each
- of the other programs. The registration fee entitles you to
- telephone support and a configuration program to change several
- parameters of the program. Send a check to:
-
- Jerry Medlin
- 1461 Sproul Ave.
- Napa, CA. 94559
-
- An order form is at the end of this manual. To charge,
- call (707) 255-4475 between the hours of 8AM to 6PM, Pacific
- time. We accept Master Card and Visa only. You may also fax
- the order form to 707-255-9266.
-
- INTEGRATING THE PROGRAMS
-
- With the exception of PC-AP, the programs are not
- "integrated". This means to get the sales totals from the
- Accounts Receivable program to the General Ledger program you
- must make a journal entry. Likewise, the payroll totals need to
- be entered each month into the general ledger program. Once you
- are familiar with the programs, this takes only a few minutes
- per month, and is more convenient than having all of the sales
- and payroll detail transferred to the general ledger program
- automatically. The PC-GL manual includes a section on posting
- payroll and sales data to the General Ledger.

-
- POP-UP CALCULATOR
-
- All Medlin Accounting programs have a built in four
- function pop-up calculator that works like a standard pocket
- calculator (if there is such a thing). Press the F10 key and a
- small box will appear in the lower right of your screen. Enter
- a number and use the +, -, *, or / keys to add, subtract,
- multiply or divide. If you call the calculator from a numerical
- entry field, (when _________.__ is displayed), the calculated
- amount may be plugged into the entry field. Press the Enter key
- twice when leaving the pop-up calculator to plug the calculated
- amount.
-
-
- COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
-
- The configuration programs available to registered users
- allow you to specify a data path and colors for each program.
- You may also specify the desired data path and colors by adding
- them to the command line separated by blank spaces. The
- commands are in the following order: DATA PATH, BORDER COLOR,
- DATA COLOR, PROMPT COLOR AND BACKGROUND COLOR. For example, if
- you run PC-GL by typing:
-
- PC-GL B: 3 14 10 1
-
- the program looks for data on the B: drive and uses Cyan
- borders, Yellow data, Light Green prompts with a Blue
- background.
-
- The programs always default to the color mode if you have a
- color board in your computer. Adding /bw to the command line
- will force the programs to run without colors if your computer
- has a color or graphics board and a monochrome monitor.
-
-
- THE KEYBOARD
-
- The programs make liberal use of the PC's ten key pad for
- both numbers and commands. At some places in the programs, the
- 10 key pad produces numbers and at other times the 10 key pad
- produces directional commands. The programs disreguard the Num
- Lock status, so it is unnecessary to turn your Num Lock on and
- off as you switch from arrow keys to numbers. The 10 key pad
- will produce numbers or commands depending on what is needed at
- that point in the program. One slight side effect of this
- process is that for keyboards having separate arrow keys,
- pressing the arrow keys will produce numbers at times when the
- arrow keys are not needed.
-
-
- These programs have been developed and refined over a
- period of six years. I'm sure you'll find them better than
- anything else available. So, relax, take a deep breath and get
- your books in order.
