Day: November 3, 2017

A while ago, I did a series of views on the Microsoft Dynamics GP security model. Well, a little after that I wrote a couple of scripts to allow the security configuration of Management Reporter to easily be enquired upon.

This first script returns the security based on how the user is configured; the view I will post on Monday shows Group based security.

The view is configured to read the security from a database called ManagementReporter and assumes the user who runs the report has select permissions on this database and relevant tables.

IF OBJECT_ID (N'uv_AZRCRV_GetManagementReporterUserBasedSecurity', N'V') IS NOT NULL
	DROP VIEW uv_AZRCRV_GetManagementReporterUserBasedSecurity 
GO
CREATE VIEW uv_AZRCRV_GetManagementReporterUserBasedSecurity AS
