With so many remote users or users in general, we can rarely to an update or change the accounting period because someone has left their station logged on. This makes it so multiple adjusting entries are required to correct everything that post without the options of selecting an accounting period, ex: PO receipt.

We end up needing to advance the accounting period by 2 months by the time we can get everyone off at the same. This also means that there is a large amount of time where people are not working as we try to get everyone out of Sage for it to still not work in the end.

  • We need it ASAP! Every other top software has it. Andrei Ralko

  • You can go to Database Admin & run a "Tune-Up". This will log off all users that have the program open.

  • I am shocked you even have to tell the system to change the accounting period. I know it recognizes what day it is, so why can't it just change over the period automatically? It's not like you can't post to a previous period. But as long as WE have to do it, for God's sake, don't make it a major problem! I don't have time to contact everyone to sign off. By the time they all do, someone else has logged on. It's rdiculous! When I sign on with exclusive rights, show me who else is on and allow me to kick them off from that same screen.
