Status Report END of MONTH LOCK

The END of MONTH LOCK is very simple. If your connected to the Internet and uploading your data on a daily basis then the office needs to know when you are done with your status report. The method that I employed deals with a lock. When you lock a file, you are writing a little extra data to the status report files. This extra data is the key for the status processor to load your data into the calcs necessary for our contract. Once a file is LOCKED you are saying [I’m done]. If you elect to UNLOCK your data after sending it then you will need to call operations computer services to notify them of the changes you performed. A level 20 (lead man) and higher can lock the file--only a supervisor can unlock it.

No changes can be made to a locked status report.
