Securing your business information and protecting the data you store about your customers, suppliers and employees is vitally important. This release includes a number of features that simplify how you manage access to company file data and make your information more secure. To find out more, click a topic below.
It's now easier to assign access privileges to each user of your company file. Previously you needed to decide which windows and functions that a user of your company file was allowed to access. Now you just assign 'roles' to each user.
For example, if you have salespeople who enter sales and customer payments, assign them the Sales role and that will give them access to all sales related features, while keeping confidential information, such as supplier banking details, private.
The new Session Security Audit helps you keep track of each user's activity, such as the date and time that a user signs on to the company file and sign off. You can also print a Journal Security Audit report anytime to view the new transactions and modifications made in a session, and the user who made them.
Backing up and restoring company files has been enhanced in AccountRight. You can now protect the zip file containing the backup data with a password. This added security helps prevent unauthorised access to your company file.
You are prompted to enter a password in the Back Up Company File window.
