USAGE: To add a new Job to the Job master-file. Normally.

Next HiFinance will present with a screen full of

in SECTION 3.5.4S.
Where required, enter a value into each field that
is surrounded by brackets. To move to the next field, press <Enter>. Complete your entry by pressing <F10>. If HiFinance has found no inconsistencies in your
