Acctdefs Functions:

Enable you to define your accounting structure and sources, as well as create the CA PMA Chargeback construct (application identifier) that is appended to a CA PMA Chargeback output record. When you make changes to these tables, the changes have no effect on the actual operation of the product until they are committed (a batch process) and thus made active. These tables are created and maintained using the CA PMA Chargeback Acctdefs facility.

Cbdefs Functions:

Create the CA PMA Chargeback definition tables that control the product as a whole. When you make changes to these tables, the changes have no effect on the actual operation of the product until they are committed (a batch process) and thus made active. These tables are created and maintained using the CA PMA Chargeback Cbdefs facility.

Query Functions:

Allow you to view the contents of the CCCTAB, CCCMOD, BUDTAB, and Debit/Credit tables according to criteria you specify.

Data Entry Functions:

Provide a facility to enter actual data, rather than definitions, into the system. This includes budget amounts and manual financial adjustments, such as debits and credits. The results of data entry are immediately available via Query functions.

Period Functions:

Interrogate and modify the information contained on the specific CA PMA Chargeback database. Forecast, Rate Determination, and What if analysis are examples of Period functions.

Options:

Specify the options that you want in effect for an online session. This includes which version of the CA PMA Chargeback database you want to run against, whether you want to use mnemonics, have warning messages and Save/Delete prompts displayed, and so forth.
