G/L Security - Sage Accpac G/L Security enables you to control access to any account in your general ledger by segment. This allows you to limit user activity to a prescribed set of accounts, blocking sensitive or confidential accounts from being seen or changed. G/L security also allows organisations to tailor access to accounts for each Accpac user or group of users and restricts users from viewing batches containing accounts from which they are prohibited as well as restricting users from adding accounts only to segments to which they have access. What's more G/L security also allows the addition or removal of user restrictions at any time in response to staffing changes, changes to your account structure or as security concerns arise and restricts financial reports only to valid accounts.

Intercompany Transactions lets you enter transactions that affect more than one company by automatically distributing transactions across two or more companies. In addition, Intercompany Transactions' built-in flexibility automatically generates intercompany loan account entries according to user-defined relationship tables called routes. In other words, Intercompany Transactions simplifies and significantly reduces the amount of work required for intercompany accounting.

Transaction Analysis and Optional Field Creator - The Transaction Analysis and Optional Field Creator module provides complete support for unlimited optional fields throughout all Sage Accpac applications.
