Sample Entry Panel

Entry panels are used to create, modify, and delete data. They appear when you:

USERID CA PMA Chargeback MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS __ Acctdefs Cbdefs Query Data Period Options Exit Help +-- CBCELMU ------- Charge Units Entry ------------------+ | Panel Exit Help | ---------------------------------------------------- | Type information. Then select an action. | | Version . . : PROD | ORD Type . . : MBJ | Charge Unit : TOT-CPU | | More: - + ____ Row 0000 of 0000 | Cmd ORD Field/@Unit Aop Field/Constant Aop | | SRB-TIME________ * '.5'____________ + | TCB-TIME________ * '.5'____________ _ | ________________ _ ________________ _ | ________________ _ ________________ _ | | F2=Xref F5=Save F6=Delete F7=Bkwd F8=Fwd F11=Expand +--------------------------------------------------------+ Command ===> ____________________________________________________________ F1=Help F3=Exit F4=Prompt F9=Command F10=Action Bar F12=Cancel PA1=Susp

Entry panels have the same common panel areas described in the previous sections, with the addition of column headings used to clarify the categories of data returned and input areas that are available to you:

___________________________________________
| Cmd  ORD Field/@Unit Aop Field/Constant Aop
|___________________________________________
Cmd

Use this column to specify commands. Valid commands include D for delete and I for insert, which provides you with a pop-up window that prompts you for the information you want inserted into the table.

ORD Field/@Unit

Can refer to either a valid field defined in the ORD or another user-defined charge unit (indicated by the @ prefix) applying to the same ORD.

Aop

Use this column to indicate any arithmetic operations you want performed. Acceptable operators are: + (plus), - (minus), * (multiply), and / (divide).

Field/Constant

You use this column when you want a charge unit's value to be calculated based on either the contents of another field's value or a constant.

Aop

Use this column to indicate how you want a calculation linked to any operations that follow. Acceptable operators are: +, -, *, and /.

This area lists all the units presently defined for the ORD specified on the primary panel - in this case, MBJ.
