Professional
Resources
Broker
Note: The description of each Professional
Resource form is very similar. If you
are going through Help forms one-by-one you may want to read about one of the
Professional Resources then skip to the Other
Resources form.
Purpose: Brokerage information is needed in some
of the documents generated by the application. The Broker form eliminates duplication of
data, reduces the possibility of errors, and reduces the amount of time
needed to produce documents.
Overview: To add a record, press the New button
on the standard toolbar. The new
record that is generated is titled New Broker Record. Click in the Brokerage textbox and enter
the name of the Brokerage. The initial
‘** No Broker **’ record must remain an option for companies that do have a
broker so it can not be modified or deleted.
Fill in the data including the appointment date which is
the date of the directors’ resolution documenting the appointment of the
brokerage. Enter the account number
and account name. Add as many broker records as needed for all the companies
in the database.
All of the brokerages are displayed in the broker
list. When a different company is
selected using the company tabs at the top of the form, the brokerage for the
company is selected in the list and the broker’s data appears on the form. To select a different broker for a company
just click on the name of the brokerage in the list while the company name is
selected in the company tabs. If a
company is not represented by a broker select the ‘** No Broker **’ option.
