Hi MCSydney,

 

Thanks for your post.

 

The (SYSTEM) entries in the Session Security Report can indeed be confusing and might seem complex. The system user is a background user in AccountRight that is used for background tasks performed automatically, such as the end-of-year journal or recurring transactions posted automatically, and to complete various system-level tasks. For more information, please check out this Community Forum post that is related to your query.

 

Feel free to post anytime you need further assistance.

Princess_R, thanks for the guidance and link.

Is it possible with MYOB's assistance to drill down on the data any further?
That is, to find out if any reports/data were printed/exported during any session?
