This next section deals with reports for master and detail files. The detail files for these masters are the line items of invoices or vouchers, or in our example, the subscriptions. When a portion of the master file is desired, it becomes easier to start with the master and then look up the detail. The list should be sorted by subscriber.
Standard headings are to be used.
The detail layout is up to you. Information wanted is the subscriber name, the magazine code, the date started, and the number of issues left. This report requires the subscriptions file and the subscriber file. The state field is needed to do the selection. The subscriber file is the master file and is the one that is sorted.
