Would like to see more of a break-out in giving access to individuals for certain functions.  At present, Purchasing is able to put in Vendor information, Name, address, remit-to address, etc., etc., similar with Sales and customer information.  Of particular concern is the "remit to" and other (similar) sensitive information that should not be able to be changed by someone who can enter in the basic info to begin with.  Or, another possibility, it should not be able to be entered / changed without a password or some other blaring reminder that something "odd" is being done.
 
Two issues related to why this is being asked for:
 
Somehow a remit to address was changed in our system (no one remembers doing it) and checks went out to the wrong vendor.  The checks were cashed by "someone else" and no one knows why the address was changed.
 
Second:  With the remit to address being "secure", it makes it that much more difficult for someone to create a "false" vendor / customer and enter bills, etc.
 
We want purchasing / sales to put in the "basic" information, but until approved, not let the system generate a sales order, puchase order, etc., etc., against it.
 
There are probably a few other, related / similar items that would be good to sparate out so the functions can be a "check & balance" for the company.
Thanks
 
 

If you are only looking at AR-A and AP-A, the programming involved wouldn't be that much.  Just a matter of defining what fields to control and how to control them - password or a separate entry screen.

Can we say Evo?  User defined screens are just one of the potential capabilities of the Evo interface, it is just a matter of getting a large enough user base to justify the programming effort. Master file entry screens such as AR-A, AP-A and IN-B are logical first candidates.

I second John's request for controlled access to AP-A.
 
We have many cases where someone (i.e. purchasing, receiving, whoever) changed the "REMIT TO" address in the vendor file such that it is a weekly routine to manually verify each check address with the invoice before mailing AP checks.
 
It is a nice feature that in AP-B and AP-C that the remit to address is shown, but that does not prevent someone from changing this address before the vendor's check is printed.

I like kevind's idea
