GL Accounts by Branch Access

Form ID: (GL103040)

By using this form, you can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of General Ledger accounts to branches, or modify existing restriction groups by adding or removing branches or accounts. For more information about restriction groups, see Restriction Groups in MYOB Advanced.

CAUTION: By restricting the visibility of accounts, subaccounts, and branches, you also restrict the visibility of the cash accounts that are linked to the restricted entities. We recommend that you carefully configure restriction groups that contain accounts, subaccounts, and branches because including these entities in different restriction groups may block the processing of the associated cash accounts.
