Thank you Doreen_P
I have done what you advised above and tested. When clicking on our Wages and Salaries Account Code you can still see what a person received in Wages and Salaries however, you cannot drill down into payroll. Are we able to restrict access to payroll Account Codes?
Your assistance is much appreciated.
Thank you again.
Hi Maria6062,
That certainly sounds like a roadblock. In AccountRight, you can remove access to Payroll reports and payroll windows, but you can’t hide specific general ledger accounts (like Wages and Salaries) from someone who still has access to the Accounts area and financial reports.
So for that role:
- They’ll still see the balance in the Wages and Salaries account, and in reports like the profit & loss.
- They just can’t drill into the payroll transaction detail, which is the current limit of what we can lock down.
If you truly don’t want them to see total wages at all, the only option in AccountRight is to remove or reduce their access to Accounts/financial reports altogether, and instead provide them only with the specific job or operational reports they need (run by someone with higher access).
For reference on what can be controlled by role and report group, these might help:
