Tracking the status of your expense reports When the status of an expense report changes, you should update the expense report envelope to reflect the change. ExpensAble uses different icons to help you see the status of your expense report envelopes at a glance. An open, empty envelope icon is an expense report with no expenses entered. An open envelope with receipts in it is an expense report in progress. Expenses have been entered for this report. A closed envelope is an expense report that has been submitted (on the date shown), but has not yet been reimbursed. An envelope with a check attached and an amount under the check is an expense report that has received partial payment. The amount on the envelope is the amount remaining to be paid. An envelope with a check attached and the word PAID under the check is an expense report that has been paid in full. The check shows the total amount paid. Be sure to change the status of an envelope each time you: Submit a expense report for approval and reimbursement. Receive any amount of payment for reported expenses. Reimburse your company for excess cash advances or personal expense amounts that you owe.

Can I send a fax using a calling card? Yes. 1. Create a Dialing Location (named, for example, Calling Card) that includes all the necessary access numbers and calling card information as part of the long distance dialing pattern. 2. Choose that Dialing Location within bFAX and all long distance faxes will be sent using that calling card information. You can even create different Dialing Locations for using different calling cards. For example, if your calling card number was 123456789 you could configure the Calling Card dialing location to dial long distance calls like: FG,,,,123456789. F means to dial area code, G means to dial the local phone number, the four commas mean to pause eight(8) seconds (a comma means to pause for two seconds), and 123456789 is the calling card number that gets entered as your calling card number. If you are calling from a hotal or business that requires dialing 9 or 8 to access an outside line, than change it to: 9,FG,,,,123456789 Typically, a pause between four seconds (two commas) and twelve seconds (six commas) works best. When sending a fax, I immediately see an error, message that states Your modem reported a general error. There are several possible problems here. 1. You may have dialed a wrong number or dialed incorrectly. If a long distance number is dialed as a local call instead, the operator message can cause some modems to report this error. Some voice mail systems will cause modems to report this error. Tip Watch the Fax Progress box while dialing to see exactly what number is being dialed. If it is not a correctly, or the Dialing Location is not properly configured.

2. It may be that your station ID name is too long for your modem to handle. If your station ID is more than 20 characters long and youve received this error, try using a shorter name. Choose Preferences from the Options menu and edit the Station ID field under the Identification tab. 3. There may be letters or non-standard characters in the phone number which some fax modems cannot dial. Try converting your Recipient phone number to all numbers and hyphens. When sending a fax, bFAX seems to stop while its configuring the modem for faxing. The palmtop PC may be having problems communicating with your modem. First make sure the modem is correctly inserted and locked into your palmtop PC. Try removing, reinserting and locking your modem. If the problem persists, turn your palmtop PC off for a few moment before trying again. When should I configure bFAX to use hardware flow control? If you cannot successfully send a fax, it may be necessary to configure bFAX to Use hardware flow control when communicating with the modem. This option can be configured by choosing Communications from the Options menu and then selecting the Modem tab. Typically, this is only necessary when using modems that are not officially supported by Windows CE operating system. It is not recommended that you use this setting if you can successfully send a fax modem. If you must enable this setting you may need to reduce the baud rate in order to fax successfully.

CONNECTING TO AN ISP (INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER)
To use Inbox and/or Pocket Internet Explorer you will need to connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) first, using a PC Card modem. A Connection Internet Service Provider E-mail service Web-service
142 - HP Palmtop PC User Guide
The two things you need are: 1. A PC Card modem, preferably one that is recommended by HP.
Note Since most PC Card modems require significant power to operate, it is recommended that a AC adapter is used whenever a modem is used with the palmtop PC. 2. An ISP account From your ISP you will need to obtain the following information.
Note Your ISP may not be familiar with the Windows CE operating system however the steps to set up Internet access are quite similar to that of Windows 95. Your ISP may however have written a program for Windows 95 that automatically sets up all the parameters listed below. This will not work on Windows CE so you will need to manually set these up. Make sure that your Internet service provider (ISP) server supports the Point-to-Point Protocol or PPP. The older SLIP protocol is not supported by Windows CE. Online services that use proprietary interfaces e.g. CHAP are not supported by Windows CE. Please contact your service provider to ask for a Windows CE version of their software. User name Password IP address (if ISP does not allocate one automatically) DNS server addresses (if ISP does not allocate these automatically) Local telephone number of ISP modem ISP authentication method Although Windows CE supports automatic authentication for most ISPs, certain ISPs may require you to tick the Bring up terminal window after dialing box. (See step 11 of To set up a Remote Networking Connecttion). If you are going to be using email, you will require POP server name SMTP server name. In most cases this will be identical to the POP server name POP Mailbox user name. This may be identical to the user name mentioned on page 143.

Note Most modems will not work with digital telephone lines connected to a private exchange in your workplace. Generally, a telephone line that works with a fax machine will work with your HP 600 Series Palmtop PC. Note that digital phone lines may cause damage to your modem.

To set up dailing locations you will need: Country code (e.g. 1 for US, 65 for Singapore, etc). Area code (certain countries, e.g. Singapore and Hong Kong, may not have area codes). Any numbers that you need to dial to access an external line. You can edit the Dialing Patterns and Dialing Locations following the steps below. Setting Dialing Patterns and Dailing Locations 1. From the Start menu, tap Settings, tap Control Panel, then double tap the Communications folder. 2. Tap the Dialing tab. 3. Select the home or work dialing location as appropriate. You can also create a new dialing connection by tapping the New button if you have different locations with different access numbers from which you dial up to your ISP. 4. Enter your local area code. Leave this blank if the location has no local area code. 5. Enter your country code e.g. 1 for US, 65 for Singapore. 6. Tap the Dialing Patterns button to edit the dialing patterns for local, long distance and international calls. Dialing patterns allow you to specify how calls will be dialed depending on their area and country codes. Each dialing location (e.g. Work and Home) can have a different set of dialing patterns. 7. The local dialing pattern is used when the country code and area code of the number dialed matches the country code and area code of the dialing location. Normally it should be set to G or if a number is needed to access an external line then that number followed by a comma followed by G (e.g. 9,G). The comma instructs the modem to pause after dialing the 9. 8. The long distance dialing pattern is only used for countries that have area codes. For countries without area codes such as Singapore and Hong Kong it should be set identical to the Local dialing pattern. For countries where the area codes are prefixed with a zero which is not used when a number is called internationally the long distance dialing pattern should look like 0FG or 9,0FG as per the local example. (Area codes should be entered without zeros). 9. For international calls the dialing pattern should include the international access code (e.g. 001 in Singapore) followed by a comma and then EFG.
