Changing the security group for an employee in AO Classic
This support note applies to:
AO Practice Manager (NZ)
AO Practice Manager (AU)
Security groups are used to group employees together to use the same features of MYOB AO. Every employee has to be part of a security group before they can log in.
The pre-defined security groups in MYOB AO are:
Administrator - this group has full rights
Everyone - this group has limited rights
New Zealand only
Before you begin, make sure security is turned on
Login to AO Classic
Select Tools and then Options
Click Advanced
Scroll down the list on the All tab and check if Use Security to Yes
Click Save & Close
Click OK
Close MYOB AO Classic
If you upgraded from MYOB AO Classic and you didn't have security groups or had multiple security groups setup, you need to check the employee security groups to make sure each employee has the correct access level.
On conversion from AO Classic all your existing MYOB AO Classic security groups are converted with your pre-existing employees. All the converted security groups are defined in MYOB AO with the same rights as the Everyone security group.
