What's on the screen?
The default screen shows a list of Party Groups that have the role of 'Internal Organization' associated with them. If you have installed the demo data then the default company 'Company' as well as departments such as 'ACCOUNTING', 'SALES', 'DEV', 'MARKETING' and 'TESTING' will be displayed.
For each of these entries you will have the ability to modify their individual configuration (using 'Setup') or viewing accounting transactions and reports (using 'Accounting').
