Version 3.5 109
Gross Mode
The Gross Mode Properties enables or disables the Net button on the weigh form. The Net button
provides single-weighment gross weight transactions that set the Net Weight equal to the Weight In .
Off
When turned off, TransAct will require a value greater than zero (0) to be present in the Weight Out
field before a transaction can be completed.
Set Net = Weight In
This option is most commonly used to record a weigh only type of transaction. Use this option when
the
Net Weight should not be included in Tonnage and Charges reports.
Example: Company ABC may allow trucks that need a printed weight, to use the scale for a fee.
Company ABC would like to record the transaction, but the weight is not used in any of
their report calculations.
During the Weigh In process, click the Net button to copy the Weight In (Gross) into the Net field.
Click the Print Ticket button to complete the transaction.
NOTE: To calculate a charge for these types of transactions, add a new item to the material
category. In the
Default Rates table enter the rate for the new item into the Tons/Pounds
column and set the Per Load (Ld) flag to Y (Yes).
Set Net and Adj. Net = Weight In
The Set Net and Adj. Net = Weight In option is similar to the Set Net = Weight In option, except that it
stores the weight for reporting purposes.
Example: This option may be used at a recycle center where a floor scale is used to weigh bales of
recycled plastic. These weights will be included for reporting purposes.
Example: This option may also be used for adding material inventory.
