Protecting a Budget Organization with a Password
When a budget organization has password protection, you must enter the password before reviewing, entering, or changing budget information for any account within that budget organization.
By assigning passwords to different budget organizations within your enterprise, you can distribute budgeting responsibilities among your various organization managers.
To enable password protection for a budget organization:
1. Open the Define Budget Organization window.
2. Query the budget organization name.
3. Choose the Set Password button. This button only appears if your budget organization does not use passwords currently.
4. Enter the New Password, which must be at least five characters. General Ledger does not display your password as you enter it.
5. Choose OK, then reenter the New Password to confirm it.
6. Choose OK again to close the Password window.
To change an existing password:
1. Open the Define Budget Organization window.
2. Query the budget organization name.
3. Choose the Change Password button. This button only appears if your budget organization has a password assigned.
4. Choose Change Password from the poplist.
5. Enter the Old Password.
6. Enter the New Password.
To disable password protection:
1. Open the Define Budget Organization window.
2. Query the budget organization name.
3. Choose the Change Password button. This button only appears if your budget organization has a password assigned.
4. Choose Disable Password from the poplist.
