Starting Up a New Accounting File  



To start up a new current accounting file, use the following command:
$ SET ACCOUNTING/NEW_FILE
This closes the current accounting file and opens a new version of it.

If the system encounters an error when trying to write information to the current accounting file, it automatically closes the file and opens a new version of it.

Example

This example closes the current accounting file, opens a new version of it, and changes the name of the old file to WEEK_24_RESOURCES.DAT. You can retain this file as a record of the resources used in that week.

$ SET ACCOUNTING/NEW_FILE
$ RENAME SYS$MANAGER:ACCOUNTNG.DAT;-1 WEEK_24_RESOURCES.DAT
