I urgently need the ability to be able to turn off the security preference while having other windows open and to be able to keep this window open while I work on the other windows.
The reason...
Hi Dan
Are you meaning that for some users the period would always be unlocked?
If you are this is no good because while I may be good I am not that good to always remember which out of all my clients is a monthly BAS and which is a quarterly as I am processing entries quickly, and while I try and make sure my fingers do what I want they will sometimes slip and may enter the wrong date.
This is also very pertinent at year end when you haven't yet done the BAS for the December quarter and can enter an entry dated 20/12/12 and you then enter an entry for January but in your haste you just enter 2/1 and the system picks it up with the year used on the previous entry ie 2/1/12 (way outside BAS period and also outside the financial year that you haven't yet rolled because the adjustments are not back).
