Weigh Form
List Order
The List Order option determines how tables containing lists (e.g. (Customer) Account, (Open) Ticket,
and Categories) will be displayed in drop-down lists. A dot next to an option indicates it is selected.
When
By Code is selected, lists display in code order. When By Description is selected, lists display in
description order. Pressing the F11 function key in the Weigh Form or before clicking the Find button
for any table, toggles between By Code and By Description .
To find an entry in a drop down list, start typing the code when List Order is By Code. Alternately, type
first few characters of the description, when List Order is By Description.
Current sort order is displayed in the TransAct header.
Adjustments
TransAct provides two Adjustments fields, Percent of Load and Percent Deduction . When a description
is entered in either box, the boxes appear in the Transaction Detail form. If no description is entered,
the boxes do not appear.
During a transaction, the Weight In , Weight Out, and Net Weight fields do not change. The status bar
displays the adjusted weight in the charge calculation.
Adjustment 1 - Percent of Load Label
Use the Percent of Load label when splitting a load between two or more items. Be certain to turn on
Multiple Items per Ticket in the Ticket section.
Example: A recycling center may use the Percent of Load field when haulers bring in mixed loads
(e.g. cardboard and newspaper). Instead of having the driver weigh in/weigh out for each
material, the scale operator enters a value in the
Percent of Load field and clicks the Print
Ticket button. The operator selects Add a Percent of Load Item button. The Weight In,
Weight Out , and Net Weight fields do not change. The next material item is selected, a
value is entered in the Percent of Load field and the Print Ticket button is clicked.
Adjustment 2 - Percent Decrease Label
Use the Percent Decrease Label when adjustments effect a single load.
