If you no longer have the 'Settings' list on screen, select 'Settings' from the File menu or click the [Settings] button in the Master Control panel once again. Select 'System Usage' by double-clicking. The 'System Usage: Inspect' window appears:
The number of Companies should only be changed if your business is one where there are separate departments or subsidiary companies that keep separate accounts. These can be set up as separate accounting entities in Hansa. Each department or subsidiary is termed a 'Company'. If you set up more than one Company in Hansa, each will be completely separate: usually, there will be no common information, although it is possible to copy from one to another using the export and import functions or by dragging and dropping. Separate account balances will be maintained, and each Company within a database can be backed up separately or together. Note that you should only use this feature to differentiate between different departments if you intend to account for each of them separately. If you keep a single set of accounts covering your whole organisation, you only need have a single Company in your database. In the remaining sections of the window, select the modules that you require by clicking the check box next to each one so that a tick appears. Click the five numbered buttons to see more modules. Finally, click [Save]. The Modules menu will now contain the modules selected. These tasks should be completed before applying for a database key. Details about applying for an Enabler Key are here. |
