To All Clients:


New User Interface

In an upcoming release, users will be updated to the myUnity Essentials Financial layout.  The new design provides easier access to the most frequently used menu options and allows for added flexibility based on user preferences.  If you're interested in being an early adapter, you can turn the new interface on today under File > Preferences by checking the myUnity Essentials box (you can un-check the box to go back to the old view for the time being).  The links below take you to a short video tutorial and user guide to help familiarize you with the changed look.
