Resetting existing accounts
The Reset Accounts Screen allows the system administrator to set the
usage fields to zero for the requested account/subaccount. If a reset is
desired for another account, new account numbers can be entered in the
account number field without leaving this screen. If a 0(zero) or no entry is
entered in the subaccount portion of the account number, all subaccounts
and the account total are reset.
From the ACCOUNT ADMINISTRATION screen, select RESET
ACCOUNTS. Press the Enter key to confirm the choice. The RESET
ACCOUNTS screen is displayed.
Enter an existing account number, or an account/ subaccount number, and
press the Enter key. All the usage values for that account are reset to zero.
The confirming message ACCOUNT RESET is displayed on the screen.
Additional accounts may be entered and reset in the same way.
Press the Exit key to leave the RESET ACCOUNTS screen.
If the account or subaccount does not exist, the message INVALID
ACCOUNT NUMBER or INVALID SUBACCOUNT NUMBER will be
displayed. Enter a different number, and try again.

ACCOUNTS screen. Use the RESET ALL ACCOUNTS screen, explained
