The following features are available to help you ensure the accuracy of the records in your company file.

Company Data Auditor

The Company Data Auditor allows you to check the accuracy of the records in your company file. You can use this tool to perform maintenance tasks and reconcile bank or credit card accounts.

The Company Data Auditor also checks your transactions for exceptions such as invoices that do not reconcile with your receivables account, future-dated transactions, and audit trail changes. For more information on how to use the Company Data Auditor, see Run the Company Data Auditor.

Audit trail

Transaction journal changes are tracked by the audit trail system. You can print the Journal Security Audit report, which lists the changes made to transaction dates, accounts and amounts, and also lists all transaction reversals and deletions made within a specified date range.
