The Class Code File on the Control File menu, keeps a running count of the number of vehicles currently in each vehicle status. This count is kept for each Class Code at each Location.

The following programs automatically update the status count in the Class Code File:

RA Open

RA Close

Reservation (when reserving a selected vehicle)

No-Show Processing

Vehicle Exchange

Batch Open (under certain circumstances)

Batch Close (under certain circumstances)

Vehicle History Update

However, when you make changes directly to the vehicle record in the Inventory File, the Class Code file is NOT updated. Therefore, when you perform any of the following tasks, the status counts will go out of balance.

Adding a new vehicle to the fleet.

Adding a foreign vehicle to the fleet.

In order to correct the status counts after performing any of the above tasks, the Update Class Code Status program must be run. This program makes a pass through the complete Inventory File and resets the Class Code File status counts.

To access the Update Class Code Status program, type RECOUNT (RET) at any menu "OPTION:" field or the appropriate line number on the Fleet menu. The screen will then display:

OPTION: UPDATE CLASS CODE STATUS 1 Location ALL 2 Start Class FIRST 3 End Class LAST 1BEGIN 2 3 4 5BACKUP 6 7HELP 8

Enter data as follows:

1. LOCATION	Enter up to 6 alphanumeric characters to select a single Location. Press RET to default to ALL Locations. EXAMPLE: Type TUS (RET)
2. START CLASS	Enter up to 4 alphanumeric characters to indicate the Starting Vehicle Class Code. Press RET to default to the FIRST code on file. EXAMPLE: Type C (RET)
3. END CLASS	Enter up to 4 alphanumeric characters to indicate the Ending Vehicle Class Code. Press RET to default to the LAST code on file. EXAMPLE: Type SPL (RET)

The screen will then display:

PRESS "F1" AT "OPTION:" TO BEGIN PROCESSING.
