When the automatic drop routine is executed, the program will display the date through which all loans will be dropped and the current count of available records in the inventory receipts file. A 'Y' response will continue with the process. A report will be printed that is each loan and all the items that are to be pulled. Wait for the report to finish printing before continuing with the next step. At this point the loans can all be dropped or the operator has the option to have each loan displayed and then make a choice of 'Y=yes, drop this loan, or N=no, do not drop the loan". When the program is complete, select the 'RECEIPTS OF INVENTORY', routine and complete the additional data fields that will be used in inventory. The loan date paid field is set to the current date and the status is set to a 'D'. There is an option in G. Store Parameters, field 15, the third selection "Loan on pulls" that says whether the amount of the loan is to be printed on the pull list.
