NSTRUCTIONS
:
1.) Select JOURNAL from the options available
at the MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS screen.
2.) Select the PRINT LAST X ENTRIES option to
print the last X (where ‘X’ is a number from 1 to
256) entries stored in the journal.
D
ESCRIPTION
:
This command is used to reprint records from the journal, either before or after they have been
audited using the CLEAR JOURNAL or PRINT JOURNAL commands. Records printed out
using this command are not marked in any way. This command will not affect the operation of the
PRINT JOURNAL command.
This command is used for several purposes. It can be used to reprint records for which the paper
trail has been lost or destroyed. It can also be used to print out records before they are audited, for
diagnostic purposes.
When using this command, the user is prompted to enter the number of the most recently collected
records to be printed. It always operates on the last ‘X’ entries. If an operator needs to see a
transaction that happened about 10 records earlier, entering ‘l3’ a the prompt will cause the last 13
records to be printed, but not cleared, from the buffer. This will ensure that the transaction in
question is printed.
Subsequent uses of this command are not cumulative. No pointer is maintained that ‘moves’ each
time this command is run. It always operates on the LAST X ENTRIES.

ONDITIONS
:
Entering a number greater than the number of records in the buffer memory of the journal will
cause all records to be printed. The buffer memory can contain up to 256 records at any one time.
