Chapter 15. Sub Agents

Enter Sub Agent Weekly Returns

The supply information for each sub agent has been automatically collected from the Enter Agent Deliveries function, from the Monday to the Sunday. The publications are listed in delivery order and cannot be altered. The returns amounts are entered directly from the return sheet that has been received back from the sub agent. The application is not designed to work efficiently with a mouse. It is much faster and easier to use the Tab key on your keyboard.

  1. Click on in Main Menu.
  2. The will default to Mondays date automatically.
  3. Move to and key in or choose the customer from the drop down list. The weeks supply for that sub agent will appear.
  4. You will see that the curser is flashing in the very first return box. Key in the return and press the Tab key on your keyboard. The curser will automatically go to the next box across the page that has a Zero. Key in the return Tab, and continue. If you make an error then you must use the mouse pointer to move back to your mistake, then correct it and Tab. You will automatically move to the next Zero.
  5. Once you have entered the last return on the list and everything is OK, click on .

Tip. You are able to alter the supply of any publication within this application. Simply move your mouse to the supply figure, click on it and key in the alteration, then Tab off it.  Once you have done that, close the application. Please note that the alteration will capture for charging purposes but will not alter the daily run sheet for that day, only the Total column. You should alter the supply column to ensure the correct supply figure carries forward to the next week.

You will see on the top RHS of the screen a left and right tab bar. These will take you back and forward to the recent/latest information.  The returns for publications that are not issued weekly will need to be entered in the Sub Agent Deliveries function
