Software Update

A small settings change can be a real lifesaver

By Kelly McIntosh, Accounting Master Software Support

A small change in the settings of three commonly used Accounting Master reports can be a real lifesaver in terms of time and work effort. The reports are in Payroll, General Ledger Period Processing and Labor Distribution and you’ll love the difference this simple change will make.

In Accounting Master 14.2, MACC added an option for users to decide which Payroll cycle reports they want to display and which reports should be displayed automatically. The reports can be saved within Accounting Master or to an external location. Setting these reports to be saved automatically eliminates the need to manually save these files. Payroll cycle reports are sometimes requested by auditors and having them saved automatically gives you one less item to worry about.

Similar functionality was added in Accounting Master 16.2 to reports for General Ledger Period Processing and Labor Distribution. Again, users can determine which reports are displayed and which are saved automatically. We found when there are issues with labor distribution, these reports often contain the information we need and significantly reduce the amount of work effort required to find errors.

View the screen shots below to see where these setting changes can be made. If you need assistance, please contact MACC’s Accounting Master Support Team at 402-533-5335 or [email protected].
