Privileged User Management in Dynamics 365 Finance and Supply Chain Management

INTRODUCTION 

Managing privileged access is one of the most critical aspects of ERP security. In many organizations, users occasionally require elevated permissions—for example, to troubleshoot, perform testing, or complete month-end tasks. The problem arises when these elevated permissions remain active longer than necessary, creating security risks, compliance issues, and audit findings.

To address this challenge, Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain Management (D365F&SCM) introduces time-bound role assignments as part of the User Security Governance module. 

• This feature allows administrators to grant elevated roles to users only for a defined period via Temporary role management form.  Once the time expires, the system automatically revokes access.

• At the same time, all activities performed under temporary access are tracked and logged, giving organizations the transparency needed for compliance and governance via Privileged user management.

In this article, we will cover why time-bound assignments matter, how to set them up, walk through a demo scenario, and explore how to monitor and audit their usage.
