New Features > File Location
After installing, the AccountEdge 2012 folder containing the application is located in the Applications folder; however the AccountEdge support files, such as customised forms and reports, sample company file, letters and spreadsheets, email PDF attachments and graphics are stored in a support folder called AccountEdge 2012 GB located in the Users Documents folder.
The AccountEdge Plus 2012 GB folder will also be the default location for your company file. You can choose another location for your company file when you are creating a new file or when you are upgrading an existing file.
When creating a file for the first time, a folder called AccountEdge Pro 2012 US will be created and saved in the User Documents folder.
You are allowed to change the location of this folder however; we recommend that you retain the name of this folder and the default location.
This folder contains your supporting files such as customised forms and reports, sample company file, letters and spreadsheets, email PDF attachments and graphics. When you create a custom form, report, a custom letter or spreadsheet they will be saved in this folder in order to be used in the company file.
The AccountEdge application and the Forms Viewer folder will remain in the AccountEdge 2012 application folder located in the Applications folder.
If you are upgrading an existing company file, the AccountEdge 2012 GB supporting folder is not created until after you have upgraded your file. We suggest that you open the sample company to explore the new features before you upgrade your existing file.
When you copy your customised forms from your previous version, be sure you paste them to the default AccountEdge 2012 GB folder located in the user’s documents folder to ensure access through the upgraded company file.
