Restricted Entities

Form ID: (SM201040)

On this form, you can view the restriction groups that contain a particular system entity—such as an inventory item, a general ledger account, or a user—and change the visibility of the entity in the system by including the system entity in other restriction groups or excluding it from groups that currently contain it. If a group includes particular users, only those users can view the group entities. If a group does not include users, the entities of different types included in the group can be used only with group members.

Note: You can create restriction groups for managing the visibility of a system entity by using the Restriction Groups (SM201030) form or the form intended for entities of this type.

For more information on restriction groups, see Restriction Groups in MYOB Acumatica.

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.
