Setting single user access to System Release
This support note applies to:
- AE System Release (AU)
- AE Tax (AU)
MYOB Accountants Enterprise (AE) System Release allows you to restrict access to single user for the purpose of performing updates and processes that require exclusive access.
By setting single user access, other users are not able to access System Release until the setting is changed back to multi-user access.
When running certain installations or updates, this lock may be automatically applied and then not unlocked afterwards. For example you may receive the error "User SUPERVIS has been granted exclusive access to system services".
This article will walk you through how to set single user access and how to disable single user access by restoring multi-user access.
