Feature - Prevent Users from Using Account Receivables Cash Receipts Batch Delete
Version: 8.5 and Above
Background
Batch deleting A/R cash receipts is a feature within Elliott that can delete large swathes of cash receipts in one go. It is located under Accounts Receivable > Processing > Cash Receipts Processing > Delete > Batch Delete. Given the gravity and scale of the action, it may be necessary to limit the amount of users who can perform batch deletes.
Feature
To limit the amount of customers that can perform a cash receipt batch delete, go to System Utilities > Global Setup > Acct > a/R global control. Go to the second screen by pressing the Enter key once, and you will see the new setting: "34. Can All Users Delete A/R Cash Receipt Batch?"
This flag is set to "Y" by default. Type "34" in Field Number and change it to "N" to prevent all users from deleting A/R cash receipts using batch delete. A window will pop up that says: "The following users have rights to delete AR cash receipt batch. No need to enter SUPERVISOR."
Add any user ID that should still be allowed to delete A/R cash receipts using batch delete.
Press Enter until you clear the Global Setup screen to save your settings.
Now only the specified users can access A/R batch delete. Go to Accounts Receivable > Processing > Cash Receipts Processing > Delete > Batch Delete. If you are not an authorized user, the following message will appear when you open the batch delete.
To turn this off, go back to Global Setup and change the setting from "N" to "Y."
