USAGE: To add a new Matter Type to the Matter Types master-file.

 

DISCUSSION: When you start this function, the computer will initially ask for a Matter Type code. Insert a code and press <Enter>. Matter Type codes must be 1 to 3 characters long without any embedded spaces. For further information, see SECTION 7.2.2.1.

Once T.L.A. has accepted the code you will be presented with a screen full of all the fields you can enter information into. These fields are fully described in SECTION 7.2.1.2.

 

Where required, enter a value into each field that is surrounded by brackets. To move to the next field, press <Enter>. Complete your entry by pressing <F10>. If T.L.A. has found no inconsistencies in your entries, you will be asked to confirm and the information will then be saved to disk.

 

If at any time you wish to abort the entry sequence, press <ESC>. You will be asked to confirm your request. If you abort the entry all current changes will be cancelled and the Matter Type will not have been added to the Matter Types master-file.
