Restriction Groups by GL Account

Form ID: (GL104020)

On this form, you can view the restriction groups that contain a particular General Ledger (GL) account. You can also change the visibility of the account in the system by including it in other restriction groups or excluding it from groups that currently contain it.

Note: You can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of GL accounts by using the GL Account Access (GL104000) form.

For more information on 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.
