SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 5
BUILDING A CUSTOMER FILE
Now that you have setup your system file, SOAR knows where to
store and fetch the data for the other required files. At this
point it is best to add five or ten customers so you can get on
with exploring the capabilities of SOAR.
From the Main Menu select 3, Customer Maintenance. SOAR will
load the customer maintenance program and display the Customer
Maintenance Menu. You can see that you have five choices (not
counting the EXIT choice) and these are fully described in the
manual. At this time we want to add customers so select option
number 1.
Start entering your customers and filling in the data described
in the SOAR USERS MANUAL. You will be prompted for every
entry and given an opportunity of making changes before the
data is saved.
A few comments are in order concerning the various balances.
SOAR uses the principal that anything billed today is due
before the next billing period. If you bill on a monthly basis
then you expect payment before you bill again. Therefore, Past
Due Balance is that which has not been paid since the last
billing period. Using SMITH for an example, assume that
SMITH had $100 in charges in January and that you billed him on
February 1st. When the End of Billing Period processing was
run after your billing, his Current Charges were set to zero
and his Present Balance was set to $100. SMITH did not make
any payments in February. Now, after billing on March 1st and
running End of Billing Period processing the $100 was trans-
ferred to Past Due Balance.
Now is as good a time as any to discuss how payments are
handled. Whenever a payment transaction is entered and posted,
the amount of the payment is first applied against the Past Due
Balance. Any remainder is applied against the Present Balance.
Should a customer make a payment greater than their balance,
then their Present Balance would be a negative number to in-
dicate that they have a credit.
5.1 Saving Your Customer Data:
After completing the last entry you will see a prompt on
the screen "S to SAVE, C to CHANGE, A to ABORT:". If the data
is correct, enter S <E> and SOAR will save the data to the
disk and prompt you for the next customer. If you wish to make
changes the enter C <E> and you will be prompted for the line
number you wish to change. After making all your changes, you
would save the data by entering S <E>. You may abort the
program by entering ESC or A <E>. All data previously saved is
intact; you simply aborted from the current screen.
Page 20
SOAR USERS GUIDE
After entering 5 or 10 customers you might like to leave the
data entry mode and try the View or Change options on the
Customer Maintenance Menu. To exit, depress the ESC key. You
will then see a message flashed to the screen:
SORTING CUSTOMER.MAS
SOAR keeps all customer records in ascending order by the
customer id. This is done to speed up accessing any customer
in the file. Once the sort is complete you will be returned to
the Customer Maintenance Menu. Return to the Main Menu by
either accepting the default option or depressing the ESC key.

SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 6
ENTERING SUMMARY CATEGORIES
Now that you have the system file setup and your customers
entered, it is time to enter your Summary Categories.
(1) At the Main Menu select 2, Category Maintenance.
(2) At the Charge Maintenance Menu select 1, Summary
Category Maintenance.
The screen will now display all the empty summary categories
and their associated totals. Since this is a new file the only
categories labeled are those created by SOAR; i.e., PAYMENTS,
TAXABLE SALES, etc.
Using the data you prepared after Sections 2 and 3, select the
category you want to enter. Enter the title and, if you have
it, the year to date totals for this category. Once you have
entered all your summary categories, exit the program by
accepting the default when prompted for a line to change. The
exit path from Summary Category Maintenance is to the Charge
Maintenance Menu.
You will probably want to make some changes to your summary
categories after you have run SOAR for a while. To do so, just
follow the path from the Main Menu as described above.
Page 22
SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 7
BUILDING A TRANSACTION CATEGORY FILE
The final step in installing SOAR is creating the transaction
categories you will use for entering payments and charges.
If you skipped over Sections 2 and 3, please go back and read
them so you have a good feel for the relationship between
transactions and transaction categories.
There are two ways in which a transaction category file can be
created. These are (1) creating a "block" of dummy categories
and then changing them as needed, or, (2) creating (adding)
categories one at a time. Both methods will be described.
7.1 Adding A Block of Categories:
A suggestion was made in Section 3 for you to partition your
transaction categories such that your most commonly used
categories were at the start of the list, your automatic
billing categories next, and your "inventory" or fixed price
items last. Using this strategy, you can create an initial
block of categories with sufficient space to hold all your
items. However, make sure you have allowed enough room for
growth in the lower numbered categories.
As an example, suppose you think that you will need no more
than 30 categories for commonly used charges; i.e., hours
consulting, fixed price jobs, payments, etc. To allow room for
growth, reserve at least 50 or 60 categories for this purpose.
If you have, for instance, 50 customers for which you perform
a service and bill them automatically each month, then you
should reserve at least 100 categories to allow for growth.
Remember, each customer to be billed automatically requires a
transaction category.
The final partition will encompass the "things" that you sell
such as supplies, plants, or whatever. These are the retail
or inventory items that are sold on a regular basis and for
which you wish some historical data as well as simplifying a
transaction entry. Suppose you have 100 items that fall into
this classification, then allow at least 200 categories in
building the initial file. Note that new blocks can be added
at any time as you add new items.
Based on the example above, you would need:
Commonly used categories ....... 60
Automatic billing categories ... 100
Inventory type categories ...... 200
----
Total required ......... 360
Page 23
SOAR USERS GUIDE
Since this is an estimate, you would probable establish an
initial block of 400-500 transaction categories. This is done
as follows:
(1) At the Main Menu select 2, Category Maintenance
(2) At the Charge Maintenance Menu select 2, Transaction
Category Maintenance
(3) At the Transaction Category Maintenance Menu select
4, Add/Create TC Block
SOAR will display the following message:
This program allows you to create a transaction category
file if one does not exist or to add to an existing file.
Do you want to continue (Y or N):
The default response is "N", so enter Y <E>, and you will be
asked how many categories you wish to create. The default is
100. Either accept the default (depress ENTER) or enter the
number you require. SOAR will then create a transaction
category file with the specified number of dummy categories and
return you to the Transaction Category Maintenance Menu.
SOAR creates dummy categories with the following fields already
filled in:
Title: *
Charge Factor: 1.0
Taxable: Y
Summary Category: 7 (TAXABLE SALES)
Since these categories are not useable, you must now change
them such that they can be used for entering transactions. The
transaction categories can be changed via the Category Maintenance
Menu. The SOAR USERS MANUAL contains detailed instructions.
Enter a few more categories to have enough to experiment with.
Don't worry about losing your work, you will save this initial
work before experimenting with SOAR. Exit from the program
when you are ready by depressing the ESC key. Remember, ESC
will always get you out of a program and back to a previous
menu. If you do not wish to add a single category you may skip
the next section and go on to Chapter 8.
7.2 Adding A Single Category:
If your business revolves around a very few types of trans-
actions you can build your transaction category file one at a
time. This method has the drawback of not allowing "gaps" in
the number sequence for adding new categories. Therefore, you
must be thorough when you prepare your list of categories.
Page 24
SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 8
EXPLORING SOAR
The most difficult part of any accounting program is setting up
the data files. You should have entered enough data to allow
you to begin experimenting. After experimenting you can go
back and finish entering your customers and transaction
categories. Before continuing it would be best to get a hard
copy of what has been done thus far.
Go to the Main Menu and select 4, Reports Menu. Make sure you have
paper in the printer and properly aligned. From the Reports Menu
select reports for a Customer Master List, Transaction Categories,
and Summary Categories.
Carefully look over the reports for errors. If an error is
found, go to the appropriate menu and make corrections.
8.1 Saving Your Work:
You have gone to a lot of work in getting this far and it would
be a shame to mess it up with the exploring and experimenting
to follow. You can protect your work by copying it onto a
floppy disk and then restoring it when you are through
exploring. The procedures are different for hard disk and
floppy disk users. Exit SOAR by either <E> or ESC at the Main
Menu.
Hard Disk Users:
(1) Go to the SOAR sub-directory by: CD \SOAR <E>.
(2) Put a freshly formatted diskette in Drive A.
(3) Type: COPY SOAR.SYS A: <E>
(4) Type: CD \DATA <E>
(5) Type: COPY CUSTOMER.MAS A: <E>
(6) Type: COPY *.CAT A: <E>
(7) Type: CD .. <E>
Floppy Disk Users:
(1) Put SOAR Disk #1 in Drive A.
(2) Put a freshly formatted diskette in Drive B.
(3) Type: COPY A:SOAR.SYS B: <E>
(4) Put your Data disk in Drive A.
(5) Type: COPY A:CUSTOMER.MAS B: <E>
(6) Type: COPY A:*.CAT B: <E>
(7) Put SOAR Disk #1 in Drive A.
All the data files have been copied to the floppy disk. If you
do a DIR A: <E> (DIR B: <E> for floppy users), you should see a
list of the following files:
Page 25
SOAR USERS GUIDE
SOAR.SYS ......... Defines your system
CUSTOMER.MAS ..... Your customer master file
SUMMARY.CAT ...... Your Summary Categories
TRANS.CAT ........ Your Transaction Categories
Save this backup to restore the data files after exploring. Go
back to SOAR by typing SOAR <E>. Floppy users should put their
Data disk back into Drive B and SOAR Disk #2 in Drive A.
8.2 Entering Transactions:
Now there is something to work with! SOAR uses the trans-
actions you enter as the basis for crediting payments and
applying charges. To get a feeling what SOAR does with the
data you should do the following:
Go to the Customer Maintenance Menu and:
(1) Give one customer a present balance.
(2) Give another customer a past due balance and make
sure the customer has a service charge rate (e.g.,
.015) so you can see how service charges work.
(3) Give another customer a past due balance and a
service charge rate of 0.
Go to the Transaction Menu by entering 1 <E> at the Receiv-
ables Menu. To enter transactions, select 1 <E>. You will be
asked for a transaction file name. Since this is your first entry,
there are no transaction files. If you had files but couldn't
remember their names, just depress ENTER and SOAR will display
the names of all transaction files it knows about.
Transaction files should reflect the billing period you are
currently using. The author uses a scheme like "APR-87" as a
transaction file for April, 1987. For our exploring enter the
following: TEST <E>.
Note: if there is already a file by that name SOAR will inform
you and ask if you want to create a new one or append to the
old one. In almost all cases you will want to APPEND to the
existing file; i.e., during a billing period you will keep
adding to an existing file.
You were also asked if you wished a control report. This
report will show all transactions entered and allow you a
chance to review your transactions for correctness. It is good
practice to always get the control reports.
You are now presented with the transaction entry screen and are
prompted for the Customer ID. Enter a customer that you have
on file. If the customer is not on file you will receive an
error message. Once you enter a Customer ID it will become the
default value until a new customer is entered.
Page 26
SOAR USERS GUIDE
Next you are prompted for the transaction date. The default
is today's date. You may either change it or accept the de-
fault. If you change the date, then the new date will be the
default until it is changed again.
The next required entry is the Transaction Category. The
bottom half of the screen displays the first 20 Transaction
Categories. You can move about your entire Transaction
Category file using the cursor keys on the right of your key-
board. The keys work as follows:
PgUp ..... Move up to the previous screen.
PgDn ..... Move down to the next screen (next 20
categories will be displayed).
Home ..... Go to the first screen.
End ...... Go to the last screen (end of the transaction
file).
Up ....... Up Arrow. Move up one half of the way to the
first screen; e.g., the Transaction Category
numbers will be one half of those currently
displayed.
Dn ....... Down Arrow. Move one half of the way from
the current screen to the end of the file.
CTRL PgUp Move 100 categories toward the first screen.
CTRL PgDn Move 100 categories toward the last screen.
The last two commands are executed by holding down the CTRL key
(on the left of the keyboard) and then depressing the PgUp or
PgDn key on the right of the keyboard. Experiment with the
keys and learn how to move about the file to see the trans-
action categories. Select a category for this transaction and
enter its number. For example if you are entering a payment
and you have Transaction Category 1 as Payments Received, then
enter 1 <E>. SOAR will fill in the screen with the information
it extracted from the transaction category.
Now you are prompted to enter the amount or quantity of the
transaction. If this is a variable category (Payments, for
example) enter the amount of the payment. If this is an hourly
charge, enter the number of hours. If this is a fixed price,
enter the quantity; e.g., 3 if you sold 3 widgets.
SOAR will now display the complete transaction including total
price (less taxes) and the taxes (if any). You are now given
the opportunity of changing any of the fields you entered. If
everything is correct, accept the default to SAVE the data.
The last entry for a transaction is the comment field. You may
use this to include a comment on the transaction to give more
information to the customer. For example, this can be used to
Page 27
SOAR USERS GUIDE
identify what the 2 hours of consulting were for or what was
purchased under a general Miscellaneous Taxable Sales category.
If you do not wish to enter a comment, just press ENTER.
For payments, the Comment field will be changed to a Check
Number field. If you enter a number it will be included in the
customer file and on the bill. If you wish not to include a
check number, just depress ENTER. You may also include any
comment here provided it does not start with a digit (number).
SOAR scans the comment field (check number field) for payment
transactions and converts leading numbers to the check number
for the payment.
This completes your first transaction entry. Easy wasn't it!
You are now prompted for a new customer id. The default is the
customer you just entered; this simplifies multiple entries for
the same customer. Keep entering transactions until you have
entered some for at least three or four customers. You may
exit this screen by entering ESC. If you opted for a control
report, you will be prompted to align the paper. Depress a key
and your control report will be printed.
Scan the report for errors. If there are errors you CANNOT
correct them; this preserves all entries for audit purposes.
However, you can DELETE the transaction if it has not been
posted. The transaction number is shown on the control report
and this is what you use to delete a transaction. You can do
this through selection 4, Delete Transactions on the Trans-
action Menu.
Suppose you forgot to enter a transaction several days ago and
you have since entered more transactions. No problem, just go
to Transaction Entry and enter the transaction using the
correct transaction date. SOAR will place all transactions in
date order when bills are prepared.
8.3 Posting Transactions:
Posting is the process in SOAR where payments and charges are
used to update the customer files and the summary categories.
Once posted, a transaction cannot be deleted. If an error was
discovered AFTER posting, the only way to correct it is to
generate an offsetting transaction; i.e., enter a payment or
credit to cover the improper charge and vice versa.
Some business post transactions at the end of a business day
while others post after they are entered. SOAR gives you the
option of doing it which ever way you wish. The author uses
the second approach since customer files are therefore always
up to date. To post transactions, select the desired posting
Page 28
SOAR USERS GUIDE
option from the Transaction Menu. For our experiment, enter 5,
Post All Transactions. You will be prompted for the trans-
action file name and the option for a control report. Enter
the file name as TEST <E>.
You may be interested to see what was done during posting. Go
to the Customer Maintenance Menu and VIEW one of the customers
for which you entered transactions. The customer file should
have been updated with the new data. Charges will be applied
to the Current Charges Field and payments will be shown in the
payment history portion of the record.
8.4 Applying Automatic Charges:
If you entered some transaction categories for automatic
billing, you can have these added to the transaction file by
selecting 2 at the Transaction Menu. You will be prompted
again for a file name and given the option of a control report.
Automatic charges are like other charge transactions except
they can only be applied once a billing period. You will also
be asked if you would like to include a comment with each
transaction. For instance if SMITH is automatically billed for
some service you might want to include a comment such as:
Service for 3/87 to 4/87
The comment will be part of the transaction and included in the
bill. As each automatic billing transaction is prepared you
will be prompted with the customer id and a request for a
comment. If you don't want to include a comment for a part-
icular customer, just depress ENTER.
8.5 Applying Late Charges:
You should always apply late charges even if you have not in-
cluded a late charge percentage in the customer file. This
ensures that ALL customers with outstanding balances will be
billed. As you experiment with billing, note the difference
in the bills for customers with a late charge percentage and
those without.
Before applying late charges you must be sure that all payment
transactions have been entered. This ensures that customers
receive credit for payments. SOAR will scan the transaction
file before computing late charges to ensure that all payments
have been posted. However, SOAR cannot post what has not been
entered. The author uses the practice of entering transactions
on a regular basis and applying late charges and again posting
all transactions as the last action before preparing bills.
Page 29
SOAR USERS GUIDE
8.6 Preparing Bills:
The whole purpose of any business is to make money. This can't
be done unless we provide bills to those for whom we do work,
provide a service or sell goods. Thus, SOAR was primarily
developed to simplify the process of billing and to allow more
time to be spent on the actual business of earning more money.
SOAR serves this purpose well.
You are ready to bill when you have entered all transactions,
posted payments (and charges), applied automatic billing and
late charges, and posted all payments and charges. It may
appear that there is a lot of posting going on, but it is one
way to insure that things are properly entered and kept track
of. You can post as many times as you wish; if something has
been posted once, it will not be posted again.
To prepare bills, goto to the Receivables Menu and select 2, Billing.
As in any of the SOAR modules that deal with transaction files,
you will be asked for a file name and the option of a control
report. You may have wondered why SOAR keeps asking for a file
name. SOAR was designed such that you can have multiple trans-
action files effective at the same time. For example, you may
have one file for out-of-state customers, another for this or
another for that. Since SOAR does not know how you are going
to run your business, you are asked for a file name.
SOAR now sorts the transaction file by customer, date and
transaction number. This means that all transactions will
first be grouped by customer and then in date order for each
customer. Transactions entered for the same customer on the
same date will be grouped in the same sequence as they were
entered. This was done to ensure, among other things, that
comments and messages (' Note transaction categories) could be
contiguous and not scrambled.
You will now be asked a series of questions. Answer them all, and
the billing will be completed. Details concerning these questions
is fully described in the SOAR USERS MANUAL.
After answering all these questions, SOAR will then process the
transaction file and prepare the bills. During processing a
billing register and summary file are created or appended that
give you a report of the bills prepared and a summary of where
the charges or payments were directed (summary categories).
Using the experimental data you have been tinkering with,
prepare some bills. This is what you have been striving for
these last 30 pages or so. You should have found the billing
to be easy and painless. It takes almost more time to fold,
stuff, and stamp the bills than it does to prepare them!
Page 30
SOAR USERS GUIDE
8.7 End of Period Processing:
Once bills have been prepared it is necessary to inform SOAR
that there are no more payments or charges forthcoming this
billing period and to update the customer and automatic trans-
action categories. End of Period adds the Present Balance to
the Past Due, replaces the Present Balance with Current Charges
and zeros the Current Charges. End of Period also clears the
billed flag from the automatic billing transaction categories
so they can be used during the next billing period.
To perform End of Period, select 3 from the Receivables Menu.
From the End of Period Menu, select 1, End of Billing Period.
Thats all there is!
8.8 More Exploring:
Thus far you have been exposed to all the menus of SOAR. It is
not possible to discuss all the features in a USERS GUIDE. You
are encouraged to become a registered user and to receive the
manual describing SOAR in greater detail. Besides, it gives
the author a warm feeling to be able to put money in the bank.
So, experiment with SOAR and learn what it can do. When you
feel comfortable, go to the next section and begin to use SOAR
for your billing.

SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 9
PHASING SOAR INTO YOUR BUSINESS
Hopefully you have explored SOAR sufficiently to feel comfor-
table with it and to find it of use. Now you can get rid of
the files created while exploring and restore your original
files to put SOAR to work.
The first thing we must do is purge the system of the data
files created during the evaluation. Again, this is different
for hard disk users than it is for floppy users.
Hard Disk Users:
(1) Exit SOAR from the Main Menu by <E> or ESC.
(2) Type: CD \SOAR <E>
(3) Type: ERASE SOAR.SYS <E>
(4) Type: CD \DATA <E>
(5) Type: ERASE CUSTOMER>MAS <E>
(6) Type: ERASE *.CAT <E>
(7) Type: ERASE TEST.* <E>
(8) Load your copy of your original files into Drive A.
(9) Type: COPY A:CUSTOMER.MAS . <E>
(10) Type: COPY A:*.CAT . <E>
(11) Type: CD .. <E>
(12) Type: COPY A:SOAR.SYS . <E>
Your original files are now restored and you are ready to pro-
ceed to Section 9.1.
Floppy Disk Users:
(1) Exit SOAR from the Main Menu by <E> or ESC.
(2) Type: ERASE B:*.CAT <E>
(3) Type: ERASE B:CUSTOMER.MAS <E>
(4) Type: ERASE B:TEST.* <E>
(5) Type: ERASE A:SOAR.SYS <E> This assumes that
SOAR Disk #2 is in Drive A.
(6) Load you copy of your original files into Drive B.
(7) Type: COPY B:SOAR.SYS A: <E>
(8) Load your SOAR Disk #1 in Drive A.
(9) Type: COPY B:SOAR.SYS A: <E>
(10) Load your Data disk into Drive A.
(11) Type: COPY B:CUSTOMER.MAS A: <E>
(12) Type: COPY B:*.CAT A: <E>
(13) Put your Data disk in Drive B and SOAR Disk #1 in
Drive A and proceed to the next section.
Page 32
SOAR USERS GUIDE
9.1 Completing Your Data Files:
You are back to where you were when you started experimenting.
You must now continue entering the rest of your customers and
the transaction categories you will initially be using. You
have experience at this so it shouldn't be a problem; just time
consuming and frustrating (at times).
You actually have two ways of completing your data files.
These are (1) all at once in a binge of data entry, and (2) as
you need them during transaction entry. Perhaps the best way
is to compromise; i.e., enter those customers and categories
you KNOW you will definitely need. Then, as new customers or
categories come up, enter them before entering transactions.
9.2 Running Parallel:
Once your data is setup, you should start using SOAR for
entering transactions. However, since this is a new step for
you, it is best to keep doing it the "old" way until you have
gained experience and confidence. If you make errors, you can
correct them through one of the SOAR menus. The key thing is
to track SOAR with your manual method and see if it is any
easier, saves you time, and gives you the management informa-
tion you need to run your business. If it does these things
then you certainly should be a registered user. A registration
form is included at the end of this GUIDE just for this reason.
Page 33
SOAR USERS GUIDE
SECTION 10
HOW OFTEN TO USE SOAR
There is no absolute guide as to how often you must do certain
things. The guidelines following are based on the Author's ex-
perience and are biased by the number of times he has been
bitten by Murphy's Law. You must make your decision based on
the volumn of your business and the number of transactions
your process. If in doubt, do it often!
10.1 Daily:
Enter transactions as they occur. Don't put it off; the surest
way of forgetting to bill someone is to wait until tomorrow.
Enter the transactions and review the reports to catch errors.
Post as often as you think necessary. If you don't know, then
post as soon as you finish reviewing and correcting trans-
actions just entered.
Backup your data files after entering transactions and posting.
There is nothing more frustrating than to lose your data and
trying to enter it again. You can backup your data files using
the procedures defined earlier but including the command:
COPY <filename>.* A:
All data files reside on the same drive or in the same
directory as your customer and category files. Floppy disk
users should modify the command above for their system. Note
that <filename> refers to the name given to a transaction file
during data entry.
10.2 Monthly:
End of month is traumatic for some people. For SOAR it is a
breeze! Assuming you have been entering transactions on a
regular basis, just do the following:
(1) Apply Automatic Billing
(2) Apply Late Charges (you did enter all payments?)
(3) Post All Transactions
(4) Backup you data files
(5) Prepare bills
(6) Perform End of Billing Period Processing
(7) Generate the reports you need.
Obviously you should be preparing reports as you go along, but
it is important at the end of the month so you can gauge how
well your business did this last month and make any necessary
changes in your efforts.
Page 34
SOAR USERS GUIDE
10.3 Yearly:
End of year processing is a simple step that follows after end
of month. To do this simply do your normal End of Billing
Period Processing as described above and then do End of Year
processing. These are done via the End of Period Menu.
10.4 Final Note:
The most important thing to stress is maintaining good copies
of your data. SOAR, and, for that matter any other program, is
less likely to cause problems if you have backups of your data.
When in doubt, back it up! So often we get lazy and put off
the FEW minutes to make copies of our data and spend hours or
days trying to recover from some act of nature. The easiest
way to defeat Murphy is to have good copies of all your work.
The author well remembers the work that went into writing a
specialized interpreter in assembly language for testing
electronics components. He failed to backup his data on the
day there was a major disk crash and lost six months of work.
Of course there were hard copies, but these had to be keyed in
by hand and took weeks. Needless to say, there are lots of
backups of SOAR in his office; the source code is over 150
pages long and he is very slow at the keyboard...
