    Thanks for your idea, Sarah - We'll get a sense of the interest here.

    Perhaps in the meantime you could look to use the Archive and restore options for an account in your chart of accounts as a way of managing this?

    I think this is a critical change as our business grows and we have additional staff inputting data into our system. We need the ability to lock down more accurately. I would like to see all ledgers having separate lock features, cashbook, sales ledger and so on, so that only the general ledger remains open to process final month end / year end journals before the whole month is then locked. This is a feature I have used on every other accounting system I have ever used in the last 20 years!
