Verify Bypass Fields
Program for verify bypass fields when you want the machine
to pass over a field in the Verify (V) mode only. The Begin
Field characters are V, W, X, Y, and Z. In Enter (E) and
Update (U) modes, these five characters have the same
functions as the characters N, A, R, J, and I respectively, as
shown in the Program Code Chart.
Right-Adjust Fields
Programmed right-adjust fields allow you to move data in the
current field to the right field boundary by pressing RIGHT
ADJ. Right-adjust fields must be at least two characters long,
and can be as long as a whole record.
After moving the data to the right field boundary, the machine
inserts fill characters to the left of the first keyed character.
The fill characters are either blanks or zeros depending on the
Begin Field character you use. Begin Field character R is for a
numeric right-adjust field with zeros for fill characters; J is for
a numeric right-adjust field with blanks for fill characters; I is
for alpha right-adjust fields with blanks for fill characters.
Begin Field characters X (zero fill character) and Y (blank fill
character) are numeric, right-adjust, verify-bypass fields.
Begin Field character Z (blank fill character) is an alpha, right-
adjust, verify-bypass field. These programmed fields are by-
passed in Verify (V) mode. In Enter (E) and Update (U)
modes, X, Y, and Z have the same function as R, J, and I
respectively.
Press RIGHT ADJ or the dash key, if applicable, to exit from
every programmed right-adjust field.
