Re: AR allowing backdated transactions

Hi @Zohayr 

 

Thanks for your post. To prevent transactions from being changed or entered you need to lock the period. Go to Setup>>Preferences>>Security tab>>select Lock Period and select the date.

 

Please let me know if you need further help.

Re: AR allowing backdated transactions

Hi Tracey Thanks for the response. However, my concern is that the current file year is 2022. Hence 2021 transactions should not be editable unless there has been some other MYOB upgrades that I m not aware of.

Re: AR allowing backdated transactions

Hi @Zohayr , if I may comment, it has been possible to add, reverse or change transactions in prior years for a while now, which can be very helpful. I've made use of this feature myself. 

 

There is also a new user access setting as part of the Accountant/Bookkeeper role which controls this. If you wish, make sure this is disabled. See the role Accountant/Bookkeeper, General, Transact in closed financial years.
