The choices you'll make here are commonly referred to as preferences. These preferences determine such things as how you enter information, how you move around fields, and how you analyze your sales and purchases. The Easy Setup Assistant will help you set up a few of the more important preferences.
Some of the preferences you can choose affect everyone who works with your company file; these options are marked
System-wide. Any preference without this label is specific to you, that is, the preference is based on the user ID you entered when you opened the company file.
