Program Description
This program can be found on the Service File Maintenance menu (SD-3-2). It allows the user to add service department codes, change the description of these codes, or delete a service code from the Code (CODE.DT) data file. This file stores all types of codes used in the service department.
The following fields are described below:

Enter A to add a new service code. Enter C to change specific field information for a current service code. Enter D to delete a service code that is no longer being used. Enter E to end out of the program and return to the File Maintenance menu.
Service Code
This field defines the service code that displays in the Sd Plan field in Service Call Entry. Examples of service codes include EM for Emergency Maintenance or GM for General Maintenance (4 alphanumeric).
Code Type
This field defines the classification associated with the service code that is created by the user (2 alphanumeric).
Code Description
This field describes the service code and its purpose to the user (30 alphanumeric).
The code type in this program corresponds to the service code types that were set up above. This program writes to the Service Codes (CODE.DT) file and the indexes of CODE.IX, CTYP.IX, and CODE2.IX. The new index of CODE2.IX will store the code type classification from the SDCTYPE.DT file. The new index of CODE2.IX will store the code type classification and the service code.
Rev 13 Changes
This program will now add to and delete from a new index to the Service Code (CODE.DT) data file. The name of the index is CODE2.IX and it contains Code Class Type and Service Code information.
Also, when a service code is added, or a service code type is changed, the program will get the Code Class Type from the Service Code Type (SDCTYP.DT) data file and it will be written to that file.
