Job Accounting Files - QMS 2025 Administrator's Manual

Press Select and remove the disk. Then follow the same procedure to
copy additional files, using a separate disk for each file. There is a
menu entry for each possible file, but you need to copy only the ones
you use. The last selection copies the auxiliary accounting files to the
floppy disk. These files — ACC.STA, ACC.PAP, ACC.DIC — are
described later in this chapter.
The following accounting files are stored in ASCII format on DSK6,
the printer's hard disk, in the DSK6:/admin directory:
Job Accounting File (ACC x .JOB)
This is the main accounting file. When each job completes, the
printer stores an entry for the job in this file. The job accounting
file may be a single file or multiple files, with x as the file number
when multiple files are used. Information in this file is kept intact
after the printer is turned off and back on again.
Paper Accounting File (ACC.PAP)
This file contains descriptions of the paper types supported on
the QMS 3825 Print System.
Status Accounting File (ACC.STA)
This file stores configuration information about accounting.
Dictionary File (ACC.DIC)
This file contains documentation about accounting and a descrip-
tion of the fields used in the other accounting files.
