Change User Access to stop unlocking period.

Is there  a way a users access can be changed so they are unable to deslect "lock period" in Security settings for accounting purposes?

    Hi CarolineG 

     

    The Preferences window can be set up to have Read & Write access, Read Only access or No access for users. It is in how you set up the function of that role.

     

    If you are needing to review a role and their access to that Preferences window do complete the following process:

    1. Log into the company file as an Administrator user
    2. Navigate to Setup>>User Access 
    3. Select Manage Roles
    4. Highlight the desired role (left-hand side)
    5. Select General
      • If the Preferences option is not ticked, users with that role wouldn't have access to the Preferences window
      • If the Preference option was ticked and Read only enabled they would have read-only access
      • If the Preference option was ticked and Read & Write enabled they would have full access
    6. When reviewed, select Save

    Using the above process you can edit the access to the Preference window for a user role.

     

    Help Article: Set up roles has more information on user roles and how you can edit the role to restrict access to functions and features.
