1. Open Sage 50 Accounts and log on as the named user.
   
   If you don't know the users password please follow the steps in the following section.
   
   
2. A message appears informing you that the user is already logged in.

Still having issues?

If you're still having difficultly logging into Sage 50 Accounts, as a last resort you can delete the file in your data that stores who is logged in. Before you do this you must ask everyone to log out of Sage 50 Accounts, including all remote users using Remote Data Access. Read more >
