You can use other products, known as third-party products, with 
Simply Accounting. For example, you can use Crystal Reports or 
Microsoft Access to customize reports or analyze your data in 
different ways.  

If you allow users any rights to read data with third-party 
products, note that they may be able to use those products to  
read more of your company’s data than you want them to, no 
matter what rights they have within Simply Accounting. Be 
careful about allowing users rights to use third-party products.  

Changes in your data 

We strongly recommend that you do not alter data in programs 
other than Simply Accounting, because you could cause  
unexpected changes in your data, leading to data integrity 
problems. 

To allow or deny users the right to use other products, refer to 
“Adding or Changing a User,” later in this section.  

The primary user of your data is called the system administrator, 
or sysadmin. This person is allowed rights to all of your 
company’s data. Only the system administrator can add users 
and assign rights to them.  

 Without it, 

you may not be able to use all parts of the program or control 
other users’ security rights. 

1.  Open your Simply Accounting data using the sysadmin 

name and password. If you are setting up a sysadmin 
password for the first time, when you open the company, 
you will already be logged on as the system administrator. 

2.  In the Home window, on the Setup menu, choose Set Up 

Users.
