- a) Refering back to "Profit Levels and Fees", you entered the desired
- levels of profit. Service Center now will calculate the selling price for
- this item. As you were entering customers you also entered their level. Now
- as you invoice each customer their cost of parts will be calculated on
- whatever level you have entered. Not to worry, as you are invoicing you
- will have the opportunity to overide any selling price.
- The formula to calculate profit is....
-
- cost / (1.00-Level of profit)
- Profit level = 25%
- Cost = 1.00
- 1.00-.25 = .75
- 1.00/.75 = 1.33 selling price
-
- 1.00/(1.00-.25) = 1.33
-
- b) If a selling price is entered. No calculated price will be used. All
- levels will have the same selling price.
-
- There are 2 methods in calcualting the selling price of any item.
- 1. You enter the selling price desired or......

- While on the invoice screen pressing F10 will bring up a list of all prior
- invoices. While creating invoices this screen is for informational purposes
- only.
-
- An invoice is composed of two main sections, PARTS and LABOR.
-
- a) The first question. Is this an Invoice,Estimate, or Warranty.
- Enter: I for invoice, E for estimate, W for warranty
-
- b) CUSTOMERS AND VEHICLES:
- Now who is the customer. Enter the customer code, normally you would not
- know what this is. Press F8 for a list of all your customers. Now press
- Alt L (hold down the Alt key and press the letter L). Enter their name
- and press enter. Bingo there you are. Now press the Enter key. Once the
- customer has been found, a screen with all their vehicles will appear.
- Select the vehicle and press enter. You now have the customer and
- vehicle.
-
- ON THE FLY:
- Adding a customer or vehicle on the fly....
- Customers along with many more options can be added or edited while on
- the invoice screen.
- To add a customer press F3, you will now be on the Customer add Screen,
- add the customer and vehicle, save press Esc and you will return to the
- invoice screen.
-
- Editing a customer or adding a vehicle on the fly....
- First you must select the customer on the invoice screen press F3. Once
- selected press F3. You are now at the Customer Edit Screen. Make
- whatever changes needed or add another vehicle and save. When finished
- press Esc to return to the invoice screen.
- If a vehicle was added. Once you return to the invoice screen. Either
- press Alt M for a list of this customers vehicles and select the new
- vehicle or reselect the customer and select the added vehicle.
-
- Customer history....
- While creating (or editing), press Alt H. This will take you to the
- Customer History screen. This screen contains every invoice this
- customer has had since day one.
-
- Editing vehicle mileage...
- The program always uses the mileage that was entered at the time you
- first entered it. Service Center keeps a record of vehicle mileage
- on each invoice. To change the vehicle mileage press F12 and enter the
- new mileage.
-
- Vehicle History.....
- Assuming this is a vehicle that has prior service, press F12 and all the
- previous service will display.
-
- Vehicle invoices.....
- Once a vehicle has been selected, press Alt V, all the invoices for this
- vehicle will display.
-
- c) RO:
- If you are using preprinted repair orders with RO numbers, enter the
- number here. Normaly this field would be blank. This field could be used
- to enter the customers PO number. If duplicate ro numbers are
- used, Service Center assumes continued invoices. While
- printing, if duplicate ro numbers are encountered, all invoies
- with the same ro will print.
-
- d) DATE:
- Enter the date, if todays date is ok, press enter and go on.
-
- e) PARTS:
- You are now at the first part to enter. Press F9 for a list of all your
- parts. Again you can press Alt L, enter the vendor code for the part,
- press enter and you are now on the part. Press enter and there it is on
- the invoice screen. Note, a "*" indicates taxable. It is important to
- note that if a non taxable customer is being invoiced, even if this part
- is taxable, no tax will be charged. What you are doing is selling
- taxable part to a non taxable customer. With this in mind it is better
- to keep tax id numbers for non taxable customers. Enter the quantity
- and if the price is ok simply press enter. If you want to sell the part
- for a different price than indicated, type over the displayed price. It
- is important to note that F9 displays parts by vendor code, Alt F9 is
- description. Continue adding all the necessary parts connected to this
- repair. You can up or down arrow at any time to make any corrections needed.
-
- NOTE: THERE ARE ONLY 13 LINES FOR PARTS. If more parts are needed you
- must create another invoice. To get around this possibly ypu might group
- some parts together. Possible refer back to ro numbers as a
- minor solution.
-
- Often times it would be neat if you knew who you purchased this part
- from. Press Alt F8 and enter whatever information you deem important.
- Now in the future if a problem developes with this part at least you
- will have some knowledge as to who (or what vendor invoice) to refer
- to. Possibly to get a credit or whatever. This information does not print
- on invoices.
-
- ON THE FLY:
- To add or edit any part on the fly, press F2. This takes you to the parts
- file. Add or edit any part, save, press Esc to return to the invoice
- screen.
-
- ON THE SCREEN:
- Addding a part on the invoice screen.
- If you enter a part that is NOT in your inventory file, Service Center
- assumes you want to add it on the invoice screen. The fist question. Is
- it taxable (Y/N). Enter quantity and description along with the selling
- price. This is a super fast way to create invoices. Once you save this
- invoice this part will be automaticaly added to your inventory file. Now

- SCSETUP.EXE
-
- Data Base Query:
- Service Center offers a number of canned reports. There may come a time
- when this does not meet your needs. Here comes the "Query". You can build
- queries of mind boggling complexities. Here is an example of a very
- simple query:
-
- Select Query
- Choose from:
- SELECT CUSTOMER.DBF, press enter
- Press F10 to continue
- Now press F4 to select all the fields
- Press F10 to continue
- SORTED by
- Select CUSTNAME, press enter
- Press F10 to continue
- WHERE
- Down arrow to CUSTCITY, press enter, "IS" is hilited, press enter,
- now "EQ" is hilited, press enter. CUSTCITY is at the bottom of the
- screen. Enter your city (make sure your Caps Lock key is on,
- everything must be in capitol letters), press enter
- Press F10
- Bingo......there are all the customers sorted by name for the city
- you are in.
-
- Now just think for a second. If you wanted to you could actualy get all the
- customers for a peticular zip code, who was invoiced for over $500.00, and
- only had FORD automobiles, and have not paid their bill. To get a query of
- this complexcity would take some doing, however think of the possibilities
- at your fingertips. When time permits, play in here, you can do no damage.
- Refer to the TECHINICAL portion at what each data base contains.
-
- GRAPH:
-
- First, you must have at least a VGA color monitor. If not forget it. Moving
- right along. We will gather some information. Now a screen with all
- your sales along with the date will display. Press space bar to select what
- days to graph. Its best to graph a month at a time. Select any given month
- by pressing the space bar and selecting the appropriate days. Once the dates
- have been selected, press enter. A screen will appear with a lot of
- complicated looking information. For now accept the values displayed by
- pressing enter thru each field. There is your graph. Two values are
- diplayed. Service and parts for the days selected along with the percent of
- both. Go back the the previous screen by pressing enter twice, this time
- change...... "Spaceing" to 100 and go on thru.
- press enter twice
- change...... "Percent" to 50 and go on thru
- Keep entering different values in the fields and you will quickly see what
- happens. Remember this graph is NOT an exact science of your business, only
- a general snapshot. For grins try doing a weekly pie chart, its fun.
-
- BACK-UP FILES:
- Needless to say, backups are very important. Roseware recomends backing up
- at least once a week. Since disks can go bad, consider using different sets
- of disks for your backups, changing frequently.
- Now to the actual backup. Enter a disk in to your floppy drive. Enter drive
- letter to back up to....., press enter twice. Thats it. As time goes you
- might need several disks for backing up.
-
- RESTORE FILES:
- A word of CAUTION! When you restore, you overwrite the existing information
- with the restored information. For this reason a password is required prior
- to restoring. The password is 123456. Unless you have had a total disk
- failure, I would not restore files. This is one you might consider calling
- prior to executing. Lets talk about it. One more word of caution, I would
- not give out the password. Accidents happen.
-
- SELECT PRINTER:
- Selecting this option will take you to a screen of all the printers. Using
- the Up or Dn arrow keys find your printer and press enter. Answer "Y" to
- "Test printer". Serveral lines of compressed and normal print will print.
- If compressed is not being printed, select another printer close to yours.
- Keep trying until the print is correct. The defalut is "Epson Fx 80".
-
- Service Centers comes with "PRINTERS.DBF" that contains approximately 1160
- printers.
-
- HISTORY:
- As time goes by, you will have huge amounts of information collected into
- your program. Many times we will processing all this information. You do
- not have to be a computer guru to figure out there will come a day when
- your program will slow down to a crawl. Here comes HISTORY. As a general
- rule I would say you do not have to concern your self with HISTORY for at
- least 2 or maybe 3 years. Lets say you have been using Service Center for 2
- years with January being your first month. What our objective is to move
- all the PAID invoices for January of the first year.
-
- Select History, press enter
- Select January, press enter
- Select year, pres enter
-
- All the PAID invoices for this month and year will display. Using the space
- bar, check off the desired invoices to move to history. Most of the time it
- will be all of them. You will be prompted to confirm what you are doing.
- Remember, once records have been moved to history, they cannot be recalled
- back into Service Center. Assuming you continue...all the checked invoices
- will be transfered to your history data bases and deleted from Service
- Center's data bases. Not to worry. Once invoices have been moved to
- history, they can be viewed or printed. Records are moved into the history
- file month by month. After a time, records can be permantly removed from
- history.
- In a nut shell records accmulate into Service Center. After a period of
- time moved into history then permantely removed. This whole process can
- take years.
-
- INSTALL FILES
- Service Center does not come with data bases or the index files necessary
- to operate. Here is where they are created. If this option is selected and
- all the data bases are already created, nothing happens. When you first
- start using Service Center this is the very first place ypu have to go.
-
- KILL FILES:
- DANGER...DANGER...DANGER
- Here you can delete records from almost all the data bases. If you have
- just purchased or are demoing Service Center, and have entered a bunch of
- usless information. Here is where to go and clean up all the junk and start
- over. A password is required, 123456. As a word of CAUTION, once records
- have been removed, THEY CANNOT BE RECALLED!. Make sure you understand whats
- going on prior to running this routine. Possibly consider calling Roseware
- for help.
-
- CHANGE AREA CODE:
- Enter the area code to change from then enter the area code to change to.
- No big deal...
-
