- When making a Transaction, the following fields can be filled :
-
- The date of the Transaction defaults to the current day of the
- month. The date can be changed within the transactions screen,
- and the month can be changed by pressing <Alt>-M.
-
- If a check is being written, enter the check number. PCBUDGET
- will ask to print the check if you are using your checking
- account with the 'CH' code. If you do not wish to print checks,
- then create a new checking account with a different code, or
- change the code of the current checking account.
-
- Enter the Amount of the Transaction.
-
- Enter a description of the Transaction in the Memo field.
-
- If the source account is transferring money 'To' another account,
- then the Highlight should be on the 'To'. If the source account,
- is transferring money 'From' another account, then the Highlight
- should be moved to the 'From'. Place the cursor on the 'To/From'
- line and press the TAB key to change the Highlight.
-
- If the transaction is TAX related, place a 'T' in the TAX column.
- Use the TAB key to move to this field.
-
- If the transaction has already been cleared by your bank or other
- institution, place a 'C' in its field.
-
- If the transaction affects more than two accounts, the Code 'GO'
- (Group Entry) can be entered. This code will allow you to break
- down a single transaction into multiple transaction.
-
- If you use PCBUDGET to print out your checks, the check format
- used is as follows;
-
- 8 1/2 inches wide 7 inches high
- (copy is 3 1/2 inches high and check is 3 1/2 inches high)

- Your printer should be connected to LPT1:
- It may be best to experiment first by placing a blank sheet of
- paper in your printer to get an idea of what the output is going
- to look like. Your local bank or printer can supply you with a
- variety of computer printed checks which meet this format.
