Here is the rest of the record with all values filled in for you.
Observe the '<======='.   All text to the left of those arrows are
the fields that you would fill in when adding your records.  Only the
first one is required (License Number or Primary ID).  Later on, you
can search for any specific record by 1st, 2nd, or 3rd ID, as
well as by any word or phrase that you had entered into the COMMENTS field.

We're back to the Master File Menu.  Enter 'R' to return to the
Main Program Menu.

Anytime you add a record to the  Master File, the program
will continue to present one data entry screen after the
other.  The only way it knows to stop asking for new records
is if you leave the Primary ID blank.  Conversely, if you fill
in every field for one new record EXCEPT Primary ID, the program
will ignore that record entirely.
-
You have the ability to search through the program for any 1st, 2nd,
or 3rd ID, as well as by any word or phrase that you had entered
into the comments field.  This is true of the Master records and the
Activity records also.   You have an entire menu devoted to this one
function:  Search Through Service Call Data (option #2, Master File Menu).
This concludes Chapter 4.
