STRENGTHENING INTERNAL CONTROLS WITH USER TERMINATION IN D365FO
Introduction
User lifecycle management is one of the most critical aspects of securing any ERP system, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations (D365FO) is no exception. From the moment a user is onboarded to the time their access must be revoked, organizations must ensure that system access aligns with employment status and compliance requirements.
In a Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) regulated environment, user termination becomes more than just a technical activity—it is a key internal control. When employees, contractors, or consultants leave the organization, their access to the system must be promptly revoked to prevent unauthorized activities, reduce fraud risk, and maintain the principle of least privilege.
This article explains the steps, options, and considerations for terminating users in D365FO. It provides practical instructions, highlights SOX compliance implications, and points out potential pitfalls if termination is not handled effectively.
