Number of Copies when printing

Use the + / - to increase the number of copies to print. 

Always use standard reports

Check this option to always use the standard reports and ignore any selections to use custom reports in their place.

Prompt between batch reports

A report batch usually contains more than one report. Check this box to display a message box before each report is generated.

Remember last date settings (not working correctly)

When the program starts, the report dates are automatically set to the current date. Previous date settings are always used from one report run to the next as long as another window has not been loaded between reports. The dates will be reset to the current date when the report window is closed or the program is exited and restarted.

Check this box if you want the program to remember the previous date settings even after it has ended.

Use weigh in date for date comparisons

Both the weigh-in and weigh-out dates are stored with the transaction. By default, the reporting utility uses the weigh-out date for all date comparisons against the from date and to date. Check this box to use the weigh-in date instead.

Range separator

A range can be specified for most reports that limit which records are included on a report. For example, when generating a Gross/Tare/Net report sorted by account, you can specify that only tickets for accounts 100 through 200 are to appear on the report. The separator used to separate values in a range is an asterisk (100*200). If you prefer another character, enter another value in the field provided.

List Separator

A list can also be used to limit which records are included on a report. For example, when generating a Gross/Tare/Net report sorted by account, you can specify that only tickets for accounts 100, 110 and 120 are to appear on the report. Normally a comma (,) is used to separate values in a list (100,110,120). If you prefer another character, enter another value in the field provided.
