may vary depending on the interpretation of the question or case. Some of the answers we provide may

the data files (after making backups) to discover how the program handles different kinds of transactions.
22. What features in the Enhanced view Home window require an Internet connection?
23. What information does the Dashboard window provide? How do you close this window?
The Dashboard window provides the title bar containing the program name and file name. This is followed
by a menu bar and a tool bar which provides quick access to menu items and the search function. It also
provides several key performance indicators in various panes in both graphic views and tables. Clicking on
any other module in the Modules pane will close the Dashboard window.
24. How does the Dashboard window differ from other Sage 50 windows?
The Dashboard window does not provide ledger and journal icons, but provides a Revenue Summary, Bank

various panes in both graphic views and tables.
