AKCOUNT
	             VAX/VMS V4.x ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE

	Version:  August 1986

	Author:   K. Trumbley and M. Serrer,
	          National Research Council of Canada,
	          Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

	Operating System:  VAX/VMS V4.4

	Source Language:  VAX-11 FORTRAN and VAX-11 MACRO

	     The AKCOUNT software has been designed to provide  a
	VAX  computer  installation running V4.x of VMS operating
	system software with all the necessary  accounting  tools
	to charge users for resources used.  The package includes
	all  the  source  code,  associated  help  files, command
        procedures and installation notes.
	     The software in SYSTEMS LABORATORY of NRC  has  been
	set  up  as  a  batch  job to execute every Friday night.
	When the  job  runs,  the  information  from  the  system
	accounting  file,  plus  listing files from DISKQUOTA and
	AUTHORIZE are merged  together  and  written  to  a  file
	"SYS$ACCOUNT:AKCOUNT.TOT".  A report generator reads this
	file and creates detailed or summary type printouts.
             The  latest addition to the AKCOUNT software package
        is a repair utility.   This utility  enables  the  system
        manager to repair, (both automatically and interactively)
        and edit records in the AKCOUNT.TOT file.
             This  version  of  the  AKCOUNT  software  has  been
        upgraded from the version submitted to the DECUS Library,
        (Date  submitted  to  DECUS  --  April  1985), to work on
        VMS version 4.x systems.

	Documentation on magnetic media.
