Accounting Main Files

Problem

MacNail accounting software doesn't remember the main file, pay period, or other settings.

Diagnosis

1. Set the main file or the options.
2. Bring the Manager to the front.
3. Choose Save from the File menu.

Solution

If that fixes it, explain that older Managers remember the 'main files' and other options in the Manager itself, and if they make changes, they'll need to save the manager-- either right away, or when they close it.
If not, it's probably 'code changing' bugs or other damage to the Manager, and it should be replaced.

One of the more common problems in MacNail construction accounting software.

NOTE-- The newer Goldenseal accounting software program does not use Excel, so it has an easier time saving data.
