Rebuild the Crop Cost Transaction file The Crop Cost transaction file contains all the detail postings to each crop for expenses, income and estimates. Rebuild Transaction File Only This process may be run at any time to assure the integrity of the file. This will correct file errors, re-sort by costcode, re-sort by date, re-add master screen totals, and in some cases it wiil find lost detail and connect back to the proper Crop master. Remove Transactions for Deleted Crops (while rebuilding) During master file maintenance, crops in DELETE status may be deleted from the master file. Doing that does NOT remove them from this transaction file. However selecting the Remove Transaction option here will permantently remove these transactions and make their file space available for re-use. Summarize Expense Transactions This option provides for combining all expense detail into one Balance Forward (total) for each Cost Code in a Crop. All cost activity OLDER than and EQUAL to a user entered date is summarized. Activity later than the date remains in detail as entered. Detail file space for summarized expenses are made available for re-use. This is useful for high volume crops, or never ending overhead or miscellaneous crops. Doing this will speed up the batch posting part of data entry. Note that (D)elete status, (T)emplate status, or {N)o Bal Forward status crops are NOT summarized. Use the N status for Active crops that should not be summarized. These are treated as active for reporting purposes.
