Turning Account Passwords On and Off

You can protect each account from unauthorized access by turning account passwords on. If account passwords are on, you will be able to add them when creating accounts.

Use of account passwords requires that you first create a user with supervisor access rights. This allows the supervisor to maintain accounting setup information and prevent unauthorized access. If you attempt to create an account password before creating a user with supervisor access rights, the system will prompt you to create a supervisor password.

NOTE: If users are enabled on your system, this feature is only available to users with supervisor access rights.

  1. Select the Manage Accounts button on the Home screen.
