- ABSTRACT
- **************************************************************
- TITLE: INVENTY V 4.0 01/01/84 -- A dBASE II A/R Inventory
- control system.
-
- FILES: INVENTY.LBR, INVENTY.TXT. See INVENTY.DOC for a
- complete list of files, all of which are in INVENTY.LBR.
-
- PURPOSE: To provide a comprehensive Accounts-Receivable --
- Inventory Control system for a small to medium sized business.
- Running only one computer and less than 2 operators.
-
- REQUIREMENTS: dBASE II V 2.3b or newer. At least 185k on
- drive A. And at least that much on drive B. The system will
- function with as much storage as you have but would probably
- need to be modified to integrate DISK SWAPPING (yech!).
- Ideally one should have an OSBORNE 1 and a TRANTOR HARD DISK.
-
- SYSTEM CAPACITY: There is the dBASE II imposed limit of
- 65,000 records per file -- this is no problem if you have the
- storage. If you don't have several spare megabytes here is a
- chart which gives you some idea of the space needed on drive B.
-
- Every 200 ACCOUNTS need about 50k
- Every 300 INVENTORY items need about 38k
- Every 400 Ledger entries need about 26k
- Files on drive a (salesman,diary) need 6k

- Cornell University FOR REFERENCE AND HELP CALL ME!!!

- (607) 256-1264 ANYTHING, PLEASE!!!!!!!!
-
- DOCUMENTATION: Fairly extensive and accurate. To get sample
- reports get to the report menu and run them all. The password
- is "UNIVERSITY" enter it in all capitals, you wont see it on the
- screen. There is already some sample data. Generate an
- invoice for account # '2561264' and product number '123'. Run
- statements for category '99' (see Ledger Menu). Print
- INVENTY.DOC using WORDSTAR.
-
- USAGE: The system was designed for my father, a wholesale gun
- distributor, (GATOR GUNS INC.). Hence the prompts for 'MAKE'
- and 'MODEL','FFL NO', and others. Anybody with just a little
- bit of knowledge about dBASE II could alter the prompts the
- structure of the database does not need to be changed just the
- prompts.
-
- RATING: I give it *****'s since it does exactly what I and my
- father need with almost no errors. I would say the program is
- about 90% bug-free
-
- ** ISSUE THE FOLLOWING COMMAND WHEN IN DBASE WITH DATA DISK IN
- DRIVE B:
-
- . RENAME B:ACCNTNO.NDX TO B:ACCNT:NO.NDX
