Accountant’s Copy

Understanding what a Sage 50 Accounting data Accountant's Copy is.

An accountant’s copy is a copy of your company data that give to your accountant to make miscellaneous transactions entries. Your accountant must be using Sage 50 Accounting Accountant Edition for you to be able to continue working in the file.

It’s a good idea for you to back up your data before creating an accountant’s copy.

While your accountant has a copy of your company data, don't:

• Delete or renumber any accounts
• Delete or rename any projects
• Delete or renumber any departments
• Delete or renumber any tax codes
• Delete or modify any currency information

Performing any of the above will prevent some of your accountant’s entries from importing into your company data.

 NOTE: You can only have one accountant’s copy at one time. Creating another accountant’s copy will cancel the existing copy. If you cancel an accountant’s copy, you won’t be able to import any entries your accountant made using that copy.
