SECTION
1.4.7 - LIST DEBTOR CONTACTS
USAGE: To print a list of Debtor Contacts form the Debtor
CRM file.
DISCUSSION: When you choose this option, the screen will
appear as follows:

Here you can choose the order in which you wish to print
the report.
Hint: If you intend to limit the report to a range of
Contacts, it is most efficient to print the report in the same order. Eg if you
wish to limit the report to a range of SORT
NAMES, the
report will scan the master-file faster if you also print the report in SORT NAME order.
Having chosen from the options, the following
questions will appear:
USE LONG FORMAT REPORT If you are using wide stationery, reply Y, otherwise reply N. This question will only be
displayed if the relevant option is set to A, see SECTION 7.1.2.
START A NEW PAGE ON
CHANGE OF KEY If you have chosen to print
the report in OTHER-KEY order, you will be offered
this option. If you reply Y, HiFinance will start a new
page each time the major key changes. If you reply N, the transactions will be printed continuously.
INCLUDE ALL DEBTORS If you do not wish to set any limits on the report, enter Y otherwise enter N. If you enter N, you will be asked a list of further questions.
INCLUDE ACTIVE DEBTORS Active Debtors are defined as those that have a balance.
INCLUDE NON-ACTIVE
DEBTORS Non-active Debtors are defined as not
having a balance. If you wish to print sub-accounts, you must answer Y here.
INCLUDE BILL-TO DEBTORS
ONLY If you do not use the sub-account facility,
this question is irrelevant. If you have sub-accounts and wish to only print
the main accounts, enter Y. To show the sales
breakdown of each sub-account, enter N.
INCLUDE DORMANT DEBTORS Normally, dormant Debtors are not included in this report. If you
wish to included them, enter Y.
The following questions ask you to enter both a
lower and upper limit. The upper limit must not be less than the lower limit.
The default answers define the extreme limits of the field. You do not have to
change all of these limits. Only change the ones you wish to, and tab past the
others.
