GL Account Access

Form ID: (GL104000)

By using this form, you can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of accounts and subaccounts to users, or modify existing restriction groups by adding or removing users, accounts, or subaccounts.

Note: You can also use the Restriction Groups by GL Account (GL104020) and Restriction Groups by Subaccount (GL104030) forms to manage the visibility of accounts and subaccounts to users, but you cannot create restriction groups on these forms.

For more information about restriction groups for accounts and subaccounts, see Account and Subaccount Security.

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.
