When you created your company file, a user called Administrator was automatically created.

By default, the Administrator user does not have a password assigned. Anyone who signs on with the Administrator user ID will have access to all command centres, functions and windows and will be able to create, edit and delete other user accounts.

 

To set a password for the Administrator
  1. Start AccountRight and open your company file to the Sign-on window.
  2. Type Administrator in the User ID field and then click Change Password. The Change Password window appears.

  3. Leave the Existing Password field blank, type the password in both the Password and Confirm Password fields.

    Don’t forget your password!

    User passwords can’t be recovered. If you forget the password of your account, you’ll need to get another administrator to set a new password for you. This is done in the Setup > User Access window. See To reset a user's company file password.

    If your file only has one administrator account, and you’ve forgotten its password, you’ll need to send the file to MYOB to have the password reset. Contact MYOB for information on how to send your file, and the cost to reset the password.

  4. Click Record.
  5. If more than one person will be accessing your company file, you need to set them up as a user and specify their access restrictions for the file. For more information, see Add new company file users.
