Wallet Divisions and Uses
« on: March 21, 2009, 05:30:41 PM »
1. Master Wallet: Proceeds from sales go here; Purchases of contracts and items not covered by other wallets go here. Taxes are automatically applied here.

2. Member Payouts: Shares from Operations; Payments for contracts to the corp from members etc all undertaken from here.

3. Shares Holding Pen: Will be used to hold funds from the upcoming Share Offering during each phase.

4. Station Jobs & Rents: Obvious really. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE when building at a paid-work facility use this wallet as your active division to ensure we can track the build outgoings. Pay the rental bills while you have this wallet active. (Its hit or miss if the rent is paid from here, if it isnt transfer the correct sum from here to the place it did get paid from).

5. Mineral Purchase (From market): If we havent the on hand stock of a Mineral, purchase it at the LOWEST price possible from the market using this division.

6. Member Capital Skill Books Fund: Super Obvious. Currently not got much in, but will do what it says on the tin, and probably be used to pay for other really expensive books too.

7. Ship Program: When purchasing a ship from the corp, pay the fee into this wallet. It will be the wallet to be used as its balance creeps up for future purchases of BPO's for ships and such that would be used for MEMBERS Benefit only. Any BPO's to be used for outside sales, paid for from the master wallet.

I'm guilty of forgetting to switch wallets when making corp transactions - I'll try to remember (but I wish they'd give us a drop down when making a corp transaction to select which wallet to use).
I've paid back the Capital Fund Skillbook - so while it's still on the small side it, once more, has funds available.

Like everything in the ui's its fiddly and i always forget to change didvisions, i really wish they would rethink the uis and make em easier to work with.
"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

There's also sometimes a 30s lag between changing divisions and being able to do anything (sometimes you're even blocked from jumping :s)

A handy tip for transfers between wallets:

Open the Corp Wallet
Change the Wallet to the one you wish to transfer to or from
Select the wallets tab

You can now right click the wallet you wish to transfer to/from and select the appropriate menu item. 
The interface will then display the appropriate popup.
