User Initials Field

The SysAdmin grid now contains a new 4-character "user initials" field, Inits, which can help you more easily identify the author of a transaction. Initials are easier to remember than an ID number.

 

Just edit the "Inits" field in System Admin for your users and then run Main Menu | Utilities | Repair Your Database to post the initials to all prior transactions.

 

 

 

Here, we add a NEW USER, ID=11, Margie A Jones

Notice that the default value for Margie’s Inits field is 11 (above, right), the same number as her User ID.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We edit the Inits field to a more identifiable “MAJ” (right)

Thus, when we view a report (below), it is a lot easier to figure out who User 111 is because of the inits "MAJ."  But who is user 119?

 

 

 

 

How to Post  User Initials to Transactions

When you're finished adding initials to the SysAdmin Grid,  you must run Main Menu | Utilities | Repair Your Database to stamp the initials on all prior transactions.

 

And if you change someone's existing initials in SysAdmin, run Repair Database again.
