Lock Total Office Manager
Introduction
This feature allows you to lock Total Office Manager so that other users cannot use Total Office Manager from your computer. When activated, Total Office Manager’s Company File Lock prevents users from seeing or editing ANYTHING in Total Office Manager.
This is handy because when you walk away from your computer, others can gain access to Total Office Manager using all of your rights and permissions. Work they do to Total Office Manager will be logged in Total Office Manager as if YOU did it. Use the Company File Lock to prevent this.
Step-By-Step
