Each ledger account could have a posting restriction control per user. Controllers may require that some certain users are allowed to post transactions on some accounts and he/she need this control point from the application in order to prevent any transaction occurred on the account by another users.

MS Dynamics AX offers a very decent control on ledger accounts regarding posting by users, the Application Consultant and Controller working together during design phase to identify which accounts will apply the user posting control setup on it.
