Managing the Subscriber Database with ZbaseW

66 025-9034AA

edit the capcode directly in this field. However, if you double-click on the Capcode label

just to the left of this field in the Report pane (or within the capcode field itself), ZbaseW

will open the appropriate dialog box (normally several menu layers down) to allow you to

edit the capcode number. Double-clicking in the capcode field in the Index pane will also

provide this type of access. Please note that this shortcut is only available for editing the

capcode within the currently selected paging format. If you want to change the format as

well then you must manually move down the menus and change the format before

attempting to change the capcode.

Please note that the capcode field displays the tone frequencies used for 2-tone paging and

for POCSAG it provides both the capcode digits and the baud rate used for transmission.

For a description of a display of subscriber capcodes that can be sorted, see Subscriber

Data Tables on page 75.

Customer Number

(0 to 10 characters)

This field is used in conjunction with an accounting system. It is useful to record the

client’s customer number. You can sort, print, and find specific subscribers by the data in

this field. Since the Series 2000 paging terminal does not use this field in the run time

database, you can choose to treat it just like the Comments field.

Rate Code

(0 to 5 characters)

This field is used in conjunction with an accounting system. It lets you assign a specific

rate code (a code indicating what kind of charges will be billed for a particular pager) to

this pager. You can export data to an accounting program (using the ZbaseW ASCII menu

Item) that may use the data in this field.

Initial Date

(mm/dd/yy)

Calendar date that this subscriber record was first added to the subscriber database.

ZbaseW automatically fills in this date when you use the F9 (New record) function key or

otherwise create a new record. You can change this date by typing in new information.

You might use this date for accounting purposes as the “start service” date. Since the

calendar date is obtained from the PC operating system, be sure that the PC maintains the

correct date. You can sort, print, and find records by the data in this field.

Note The Name, Comments, Customer Number, Rate Code, and Initial

Date fields can be used for anything you want. The paging terminal

and ZbaseW do not care (but your accounting package might).
