Floppy Systems - Exit to DOS, insert your VRS 20 Report
Menu disk into drive A and enter: VRMENU.
Hard Disk Systems - From the MAIN MENU, press SHIFT-F1
to go to the REPORT MENU.
You can see that this screen looks very similar to the
MAIN MENU screen(s). The report programs all work in
essentially the same way. You will be given some
default values and if you do not change them, the re-
port will be generated using these values.
NOTE: You will be printing some of the reports to your
printer as we go through the report programs. Later we
will compare these reports to the COST PER MILE report.
A * will precede the instructions for printing. If you
do not have a printer hooked up and ready to go then
skip the paragraphs beginning with the *.
If you are using continuous feed paper, line the paper
up so that the perforation is just above the ribbon and
don't tear off the reports until after you have printed
the COST PER MILE report.
Let's take a look at the FUEL-LOG report. Press F1 from
the REPORT MENU. After the program has loaded, you will
see the defaults for this vehicle. The FROM and TO
dates are the beginning and ending dates on the FUEL-
LOG. If you do not change the dates or the paid codes
you will get a listing of all entries on the FUEL-LOG.
Say we just want to see the entries for 1986. Change
the FROM date to 01-01-86 and the TO date to 12-31-86.
Press ENTER. You now have the option of listing this
report to your printer, your monitor, or to a file.
NOTE: If you choose to print to a file, a file
containing the report will be created on the default
drive (in the current subdirectory). The file name will
be: REPORT.GAS for the FUEL-LOG, REPORT.TRV for the
TRAVEL-LOG, etc.
..... 71
Press S to list it on the screen and then PAUSE or
CTRL-NUMLOCK to freeze the screen. The entries for 1986
will now be displayed. The last screen will show you
totals for the vehicle. Press the SPACEBAR to continue
to the next screen.
NOTE: Your company name will only be shown if you list
the report to your printer or to a file.
After the report has been listed you will be returned
to the REPORT MENU #1 screen. From here you can create
another FUEL-LOG report, create a TRAVEL-LOG report, or
create a MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG report.
* Press F1, then press ENTER, then type P, and finally
type Y to print to the printer. Save this report for
later.
Let's skip the TRAVEL-LOG and go to the MAINT/ACCESS/-
MISC-LOG report.
Press F3. It looks similar to the FUEL-LOG except there
are a few more options. Let's create a report for
TRUCK-1 showing all Oil & Lube jobs that we paid cash
for. Press END until the cursor is at B = VISA. Press
the SPACEBAR until the cursor is at G = Oil & Lube.
Press END and then the SPACEBAR until the cursor is at
Y = ALL. Press ENTER and then S.
Press F3 once more from the REPORT MENU #1 screen and
press HOME until you are at the LOANS ONLY field. Type
a capital Y and press ENTER and then S. Now you will
get a report showing just the items between 02-09-82
and 07-28-87 that were purchased with a loan.
* Once you are back to the REPORT MENU #1 screen, press
F3, then press ENTER, then type P, and finally type Y
to print to the printer. Save this report for later.
Once you are back to the REPORT MENU #1 screen, press
F10 to return to the REPORT MENU.
Press F4 and we will look at the IDENTIFICATION/REGIS-
TRATION report program. It looks similar to the other
report screens except there is now a RECORD field. The
last record entered will show in this field. Since
there is only one record we do not need to change it.
..... 72
If the FROM and TO dates are not changed, all payments
recorded in this record will be displayed.
Press ENTER and then type S to look at the format of
this report. Don't forget to freeze the screen. The
first screen shows the IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION in-
formation that was entered in the edit program, the
second screen shows related payments (all payments are
shown since we did not change the FROM and TO dates),
and the last screen shows the totals.
* Once you are back to the REPORT MENU #2 screen, press
F4, then press ENTER, then type P, and finally type Y
to print to the printer. Save this report for later.
You will be at the REPORT MENU #2 screen when the
IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION report has finished. Press
F5 to load the INSURANCE report program. This is sim-
ilar to the IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION report. If for
some reason you took out a loan to pay for insurance,
you can include or exclude those payments also.
At the RECORD field type ALL, press ENTER, then type S.
You will see the detail for each record, the total for
each record, and the GRAND TOTAL of all the records for
TRUCK-1.
NOTE: The IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION, INSURANCE, and
LOAN/LEASE report programs all contain the RECORD
field. The default RECORD for these reports is the last
record entered. If you want to list all records for
these reports, you can type ALL in the RECORD field.
* Once you are back to the REPORT MENU #2 screen, press
F5, type ALL, then press ENTER, then type P, and
finally type Y to print to the printer. Save this
report for later.
Press F10 to return to the REPORT MENU. Press F6 to go
to the TIRES report. There is really nothing new here
that has not been covered before. The tires are se-
lected by the dates and codes. Tires are selected if
the first rotation date falls within the FROM and TO
dates. Press ENTER and then type S to look at this
report.
..... 73
* Once you are back to the REPORT MENU #3 screen, press
F6, then press ENTER, then type P, and finally type Y
to print to the printer. Now press F7, type ALL, then
press ENTER, then type P, and finally type Y to print
to the printer. Save these reports for later.
Once back at the REPORT MENU #3 screen, you can either
press F7 again to look at the LOAN/LEASE report or
press F10 to return to the REPORT MENU. We won't run
the LOAN/LEASE now since it is similar to the other
reports and by now you should have a feel for how the
reports work. Besides, now we want to see how all of
these programs and vehicles files are tied together.
From the REPORT MENU, press SHIFT-F1 to run the COST
PER MILE report.
* Type 02-01-82 for the FROM date, press ENTER, then
press ENTER again, then type P, and finally type Y to
print to the printer. Remove the reports from the
printer.
Now, if you have printed reports, lay them out and we
will compare them to the COST PER MILE report. If you
did not print them out then you will need to display
the CPM report on your screen. To do this, press ENTER
twice, type S, and freeze the screen.
NOTE: The CPM amounts are shown with three positions
to the right of the decimal point. $0.075 is equal to
7½ cents. Because of rounding, the sub─totals may be
slightly different from the sum of the individual
totals.
Compare the FUEL-LOG report to the COST PER MILE re-
port. The fuel cost should be $7,655.11 and the fuel
CPM is not quite 11½ cents. The CPM is calculated by
dividing the cost by the total miles.
Next, compare the figures for the MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-
LOG, the TIRES, and the INSURANCE reports. They should
be pretty straight-forward and should match the CPM
figures. Now we will get back to the issue of toggling.
..... 74
HOW TO USE THE LOAN TOGGLES
As far as the Vehicle Record System is concerned, there
are two types of loans. The first type is for the
purchase of the vehicle and the second type is for
everything else (tires, maintenance or accessories, and
insurance).
The COST PER MILE report breaks out all costs into
categories, for example, INSURANCE, TIRES, etc. When
you enter costs for items that were purchased with the
aid of a loan, you need to tell the Vehicle Record
System where to allocate these costs. You do this by a
combination of LOAN CODES and the F5 toggle.
VEHICLE PURCHASE LOAN - If you pay cash for the vehicle
then, obviously you will not create a loan record,
however you will want to set the toggle to INCLUDE
the purchase price in the IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION
program. If you took out a loan then you need to
decide where you want the costs to go.
The following chart shows how the COST PER MILE reports
interprets toggle combinations for this type of loan:
┌──────────┬──────────────┬┬──────────────────────────┐
│ ID/REG │ LOAN/LEASE ││ Costs are added into │
│ │ ││ these CPM categories: │
├──────────┴──────────────┤├────────────┬─────────────┤
│ Toggle set to: ││ ID/REG │ LOAN/LEASE │
╞══════════╤══════════════╪╪════════════╪═════════════╡
│ exclude │ payments ││ │ payments │
├──────────┼──────────────┤├────────────┼─────────────┤
│ include │ finance ││ purchase │ finance │
│ │ charge ││ price │ charge │
└──────────┴──────────────┴┴────────────┴─────────────┘
OTHER LOANS - Use the LOAN CODES for items you log in
the MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG, the TIRES log, and the
INSURANCE log. If you use a loan code of #, then the
cost will be spread out over the life of the loan and
will still be included in the report totals but will
not be included in the COST PER MILE totals for that
category.
..... 75
The following chart shows how the COST PER MILE reports
interprets toggle combinations for this type of loan:
┌──────────┬──────────────┬┬──────────────────────────┐
│ M-T-I │ LOAN/LEASE ││ Costs are added into │
├──────────┼──────────────┤│ these CPM categories: │

└──────────┴──────────────┴┴────────────┴─────────────┘
Look at the LOAN/LEASE total report. The $10,437.48
amount is the total of all payments for loans 1 and 2.
Loan 1 was for the purchase of the vehicle ($7,517.00
principal and $1,997.08 interest or finance charge).
Loan 2 was for the brake job ($800.00 principal and
$123.40 finance charge).
For our example vehicles, we wanted the COST PER MILE
LOAN/LEASE category to reflect just the finance charges
and the principals allocated to their related
categories because the loans have been paid off. So the
COST PER MILE LOAN/LEASE category shows $2,120.48
($1,997.08 plus $123.40). The purchase price of
$7,517.00 shows in the IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION
category along with the payments of $179.20. The
$800.00 for the brake job is included in the
MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG category.
When we were tracking our sample vehicle, we wanted the
COST PER MILE report to reflect our actual out-of-
pocket expenses. So when we were still paying on loan
1, we excluded the purchase price from the CPM and
included the loan payments. That way, whenever we ran
the COST PER MILE report, we got just the amount we had
paid up to that time and not the total purchase price.
We did loan 2 the same way. Record number 79 in the
MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG had the LOAN CODE set to # and
the payments were included in the LOAN/LEASE program.
(The $800.00 was still added into the
MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG report but was not added into the
COST PER MILE report.) When the loan was paid off, we
..... 76
changed the LOAN CODE to * to include it in the COST
PER MILE report and set the loan record to finance
charge to shift the $800.00 from the LOAN/LEASE
category to the MAINT/ACCESS/MISC-LOG category.
Now we will run some sample COST PER MILE reports. You
should be at the REPORT MENU #4 screen or at the FROM
field in the COST PER MILE screen. If you are at the
REPORT MENU #4 screen, then press SHIFT-F1.
Type 01-01-86 for the FROM date and 12─31─86 for the TO
date and then press ENTER twice. Press S and you will
see the totals for 1986.
NOTE: Check the IDENTIFICATION/REGISTRATION and
LOAN/LEASE amounts. The purchase price is not included
because we purchased it back in 1982. If we go back and
EXCLUDE the purchase price and toggle the loan to
PAYMENTS we would get a truer picture of our out-of-
pocket costs for 1986.
Press SHIFT-F1, then type 01-01-87 for the FROM date
and 03─31─87 for the TO date. Press ENTER and note how
the FROM and TO odometers change. Press ENTER and then
S for a quarterly report for the selected vehicle.
NOTE: If you are running this report regularly for an
individual vehicle, you can change the odometers for
more accuracy. We will not get into this in this DEMO.
Go ahead and continue creating more reports until you
become comfortable and familiar with them. You may want
to go back to the MAIN MENU and change some of the
costs in some of the logs to see how they effect the
COST PER MILE report.
We have one more component of the Vehicle Record System
to look at before we are done with the DEMO and that is
the MAINTENANCE/REMINDER. You will just get a brief
overview of this now. You will get a chance to create
your own schedule in the TUTORIAL.
..... 77
The MAINTENANCE/REMINDER programs let you create and
customize a maintenance schedule for each vehicle and
log the maintenance services that have been completed.
The schedule will show you what maintenance operations
need to be done and also which ones are overdue.
5¼" Floppy Systems - Exit to DOS, insert your VRS 20
M/R Menu disk into drive A and enter: VMENU.
3½" Floppy Systems - Exit to DOS, insert your VRS 20
Main Menu disk into drive A and enter: VMENU.
From the MAIN MENU press F8 to load the
MAINTENANCE/REMINDER edit program. We have already
added the items for the reminder schedule so we will
skip the ADD, CHANGE, and DELETE options. (They will be
covered in the TUTORIAL.)
Press F4 to see the maintenance services that have al-
ready been done for this vehicle. Press F10 to return
to the REMINDER and then F10 again to return to the
MAIN MENU.
Hard Disk Systems - Press SHIFT-F1 to go to the REPORT
MENU, then press F8 to load the MAINTENANCE/REMINDER
report program.
3½" Floppy Systems - Exit to DOS, insert your VRS 20
Report Menu disk into drive A and enter: VRMENU. Press
F8 to load the MAINTENANCE/REMINDER report program.
5¼" Floppy Systems - Press F9 to load the
MAINTENANCE/REMINDER report program.
You are now at the REPORT MENU #5 screen and have the
choice of creating a MAINTENANCE/REMINDER schedule
showing what needs to be done or a report showing what
has been done.
..... 78
Press F9. If you don't change the dates, you will get a
list of all the services. Go ahead and run a report or
two so you can see how this report looks. When you are
done, press F8 to create a MAINTENANCE/REMINDER
schedule.
NOTE: You should make sure that the FUEL-LOG is
up─to─date before running this because the last
odometer entry in the FUEL-LOG is used in determining
services that are overdue.
Let's pretend that today is October 1, 1987 and we want
to create a schedule showing all maintenance needing to
be done in October. Change the FROM date to 10-01-87,
the TO date to 10-31-87, and press ENTER. Print to the
screen or the printer, whichever you prefer.
The first five items have a * beside the date. These
are maintenance operations that are overdue. They are
overdue because the REQUIRED BY ODOMETER readings are
less than the last odometer in the FUEL-LOG (117440).
The last item is not overdue but needs to be done in
October.
NOTE: Odometer entries are optional and do not have to
be used. The schedule is created primarily from the
service interval dates.
Press F10 from the REPORT MENU #5 screen when you are
done with the MAINTENANCE/REMINDER reports. Press
SHIFT-F4 to return to DOS.
You are now done with the Vehicle Record System DEMO.
If you had trouble following it, please drop us a line
and tell us how we can improve it.

TUTORIAL
Introduction
Be sure to do the DEMO before doing the TUTORIAL.
This TUTORIAL will show you how to set up Global De-
faults and vehicle files. We will not always tell you
which keys to press or how to load the programs. You
should be able to do this on your own now that you have
completed the DEMO.
You will be creating one set of vehicle files named
CAR─1.
Running the TUTORIAL
Hard Disk Systems - At the C prompt, type CD\ and press
ENTER. Type CD\VRSDEMO and press ENTER. You will now be
in the Vehicle Record System DEMO directory. At the C
prompt type TUTOR and press ENTER. This lets the
Vehicle Record System know you want to run the
TUTORIAL.
Floppy Disk Systems - Insert your VRS 20 Main Menu (or
Main Menu #1) disk into drive A and your Demo Vehicle
Data disk into drive B. At the A prompt type B: and
press ENTER. Type TUTOR and press ENTER. This lets the
Vehicle Record System know you want to run the TUTOR.
At the B prompt type A: and press ENTER.
At the DOS prompt type VMENU and press ENTER.
The first thing you need to do is to set up the Global
Defaults for your company name and codes. So load the
CREATE/CHANGE FILES program and go to the name and
codes screen and type in your name or your company name
or spaces. We will assume that you have already
determined all the codes you will want to use to track
..... 80
costs and that some are different from the defaults. So
change the PAID CODES to the following:
PAID-CODE A: Cash
PAID-CODE B: Check - Accnt 1
PAID-CODE C: On Account
PAID-CODE D: Other
PAID-CODE E: No Charge
(Leave the MAINT-CODES the same)
TRAVEL-CODE A: Bus -
TRAVEL-CODE B: Bus -
TRAVEL-CODE C: Per -
TRAVEL-CODE D: Per -
Now we will go and create CAR─1. We will assume that
you have owned CAR-1 for awhile but do not want to go
back and try to record entries from the time it was
purchased. Instead, we will pick July 1, 1988 as the
date to begin logging expenses. Select F2 and type CAR-1.
CAR-1 is going to be used by two people for both
business and personal use so change the TRAVEL-CODES
to:
TRAVEL-CODE A: Bus - John
TRAVEL-CODE B: Bus - Jan
TRAVEL-CODE C: Per - John
TRAVEL-CODE D: Per - Jan
Enter 049772.0 for the BEGINNING ODOMETER.
You will be entering two months worth of information
for CAR─1. Remember that you must select a vehicle
before using it, so select CAR─1 and return to the MAIN
MENU.
Now add the information on the following pages into the
appropriate logs for CAR-1.

Now it's time to create a MAINTENANCE/REMINDER schedule
for CAR-1 and to add some services that were done. Go
back to the MAIN MENU, load the MAINTENANCE/REMINDER
program, press F1, and add the following:
NOTE: When you add operations, you will normally enter
the date and odometer of the last service. Since we are
not able to display all of this on 1 line in this
TUTORIAL, you can just enter 01/01/80 for the dates and
0 for the odometers. You can "fix" them shortly.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Now that all the operations for this vehicle have been
added, you need to correct the LAST SERVICE information
for each operation. You only have to do this once; the
Vehicle Record System will update this information as
you add SERVICES COMPLETED records.
NOTE: The * Unscheduled Repair * is a catch-all
category for operations that you do not want to
regularly schedule or be reminded of but still want to
be able to record it in the services completed. You can
change the services completed description to something
more appropriate.
