How to turn on G/L Security on Sage 300 General Ledger
Steps:
- Open General Ledger > G/L Setup > Options.
- On the Account tab:
- Select the G/L Security option.
- From the Default Access list, select the default level of account access to permit all users. You can set the default account access as follows:
- All Accounts. Allows all Sage 300 users unrestricted access to General Ledger accounts unless you set up restrictions in the G/L Account Permissions screen.
- Note: You do not require permission for all accounts to perform periodic
maintenance functions, such as deleting inactive accounts. However,
occasionally, you may find that you cannot edit or delete a structure code,
segment, or source code because it is used by an account that you cannot see.
In this case, a user with access to all accounts must modify the accounts that use the code or segment you are trying to delete.
- Note: You do not require permission for all accounts to perform periodic
- No Accounts. Prevents all Sage 300 users except user ADMIN from seeing
accounts and account data in General Ledger and subledger applications unless you grant individual access rights to accounts in the G/L Account Permissions window. - If you choose No Accounts, other Sage 300 users cannot enter Accounts
Receivable invoices or post transactions unless you assign them permissions.
- All Accounts. Allows all Sage 300 users unrestricted access to General Ledger accounts unless you set up restrictions in the G/L Account Permissions screen.
- Click Save.
- Close and then reopen your company database.
