Screen Outline

The main screen is divided into four sections – the top left is the chart of sales folders, the top right is the sales grid of the selected sales folder, the bottom left is the list of remaining tools, and the bottom right is the display area for the selected sale.

There are three separating lines between the four sections that you can adjust in order to maximize visibility of each section. You can do this by left clicking on the separating lines and drag to the desired location. See the three notes on the figure above highlighted in red called "Adjustment Line".

At the very top left of the screen are four menus – File, Edit, Folders, and Help.

The File menu just has the one option to Exit the DataLog.

The Edit menu has one option – Configuration. This is where you set up your Enterprise DataLog options, including User Settings, Math Settings, and System Configuration.

The Folders menu options apply to the top left section of the screen – the chart of sales folders.

The Help menu has three options – "Registration" is where you go to enter the unlock codes to use the DataLog and check to see when your license expires, “AgWare Homepage” opens up AgWare’s website, and “About UAAR DataLog” opens a screen that states the properties of the program.

CHART OF SALES FOLDERS

The chart of sales folders found at the top left of the screen is where you set up your sales folders. The folder “My Sales” will always be there and you cannot delete it – it is the foundation of your sales folder. You can create as many folders and subfolders from “My Sales” as you would like. To create a new folder, simply right click on “My Sales” and select “Create New Folder”. A new folder will appear beneath “My Sales” and you will be able to name it. You can also rename and delete a folder from that same right click menu.

SALES GRID

The sales grid found at the top right of the screen is where you can view the details of the selected sales folder. In the figure below, you can see that there are five sales in the “Test II” sales folder.

You can customize this grid to contain only the items you wish by clicking on the far left button and selecting or unselecting the desired items. See the note above in red. You can also sort the grid by those items as well.

TOOLS MENU

The third section is the list of tools to use in the DataLog. There are two main menus – Tools and Conversion Tools.

- The Tools menu is where your search screen is located to search through the Enterprise DataLog (if applicable) and your local sales called “My Sales”.

- The Conversion Tools menu is where you enter the information in to convert your previous version of the DataLog into the UAAR 2006 version.

DISPLAY OF A SELECTED SALE

The last section of the main screen, the bottom right, is where a selected sale from the sales grid is displayed. You can change the view of the sale by clicking on the down arrow next to “View”. There are three options – Show All, Two Page Sale Sheet, and One Page Sale Sheet. If you want to make changes to a sale, select the sale in the sale grid, and then click on the “Edit Sale” button. If you want to print a sale, select the sale from the sales grid, and then click on the “Print Sale” button.

If the sale you selected has attachments (maps, photos, etc.), the attachments button will become active and will read “Show Attachments”. If you click on that button, the attachments you have with that sale will appear below the sale. A new menu will also appear allowing you to open the attachment, copy the image, or view the images in a different format. If you wish to close out of the attachment view, simply click on the button you clicked on to open that now reads “Hide Attachments”.
