Finalising/locking documents in document centre as well as working papers
When finalising a year in accounts production the system locks the working papers so they can no longer be edited. However the document in working papers is linking to the document stored in the document centre which does not prevent edits being made to that document within here. Therefore the finalisation button and locking the working papers in accounts production is flawed. What would be good is that when finalising the documents are also automatically locked at the other end in the document centre at the same time so that you can view these as read only or be forced to save a copy to make any edits, e.g when rolling forward to the next year. Therefore maintaining the working papers file in accounts production as it was at the point of finalisation of the accounts.
