NAV Permissions - GL Entry

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Ebitas 82

Using NAV 2016 - for few users I don't want to give read permissions to the G/L Entry table. Also, the uses need to be able to post shipments and Receive products.  So I modified the read permission to blank and Indirect for Insert permission. that worked until they try to post a Production Journal then it gives them an error message saying they don't have read permission to the GL entry table! looking at the code it stops at Codeunit 12 (StartPosting function) in that function it tried to find the last record in the GL Entry table and then assign the next entry number.

How can I not allow them to read GL entries but in the same time allow them to post Production Journal entries?

Thanks

    Unfortunately, you can't have both.

    You can give the access to the GL entry table, but block their access to the page.

    Since they can't see the page, they can't see the GL entry anyway.

    If you want them to see the COA, but not the amount, you can always remove the Net Change and Balance at Date from the page.

    Duplicate the COA page, so you have one with Net Change and one without.

    Thanks for your suggestions. Given the Indirect for read permission would work. However; that would allow the user to view the Net Change and Balance at date total values on the chart of accounts page and that I'm trying to prevent.

    Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

    Thanks again

    Indirect should be set for Read Permission for this case as the read is through codeunit 12.

    Execute permission must be given to codeunit 12.
