Exhibit 8.5 Caution when PurgingThe following are excerpts from the rules concerning what is not purged when using the purge process in Peachtree, v.6.0:
If the transaction is dated after the purge date, then it is saved. If the transaction is a payroll check and it is in or after the current payroll year, then it is saved. If the transaction is a purchase or sale invoice and it is not fully paid off as of the purge date, then it is saved. If the transaction is a cash receipt or cash disbursement and it is applied to a saved invoice, then it is also saved. If the transaction is a sale or purchase and has related payments that have already been saved, then it is also saved.

Recording and posting Invoice# 308 caused three changes to tables in the sales module.1. File maintenance: Because this is an event for a new customer, a record has been added to the Client Table for Roger Longman.2. Event recording: One record was added to the Invoice Table (#308) and four records to Invoice_Detail Table. Invoice table now shows the posting date (PostDt)3. Master file update: Year-to-Date_Revenues (in the Service Table) for the four services used per Invoice# 308 increased by $100, $50, $50, and $80.
