Day-Book

The day-book is saved electronically on the document directory in PDF format. The standard document directory is: C:\Documents and settings\All Users\Public Mamut\Mamut6847\Data\System001\Client\000\001\Documents\Journals

However this can deviate. You can find the document directory under View - Settings - Other Settings - Other programs.

Tip! Select File - Database utilities - Go to company database document directory in order to open the area in Windows explorer.
