Erasing all company user records will no longer display the Log In window, where you must enter a user name and password when opening the company. It will also remove user accountability provided by Sage 50's audit trail feature and the Audit Trail report (Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher).
Note: Before removing user and password security, you should log on to the Sage 50 company as an administrative user (meaning you must have access to the Users window).
- From the Maintain menu, select Users. Sage 50 displays the User Security window.
- Delete all users listed in the window. How do I do this?
It is important that you first delete all non-administrative user records (those who do not have access to the User Security window). Then, delete administrative user records.
Note: If multiple users still exist and you attempt to delete the only administrative user record with access to Users, Sage 50 will prompt you with an error message. You cannot delete the single administrative user record until all other user records are removed.
After you delete the last user record, you are not prompted for a user name and password when opening your Sage 50 company. Also, in the Sage 50 Audit Trail report, activity will no longer be associated with user names (Sage 50 Premium Accounting and higher).
