Consider the following prompt program for department number. Note that it allows the user to select a department, change an existing department, delete an existing department or even create a new department:
| Panel |
|---|
INVOICE01 Invoice Inquiry Company number . . |
| No Format |
| INVOICE01 Invoice Inquiry
Company number . . . ____ ................................................................ Dept number . . . . .
DEP01 Departments : : ...................: |

................................................................ Dept number . . . . .

: artment : Cancel : |
