RE: Business Central Roles & Permissions
Sure, thanks. Yes, there is documentation much of which is helpful for beginners, I totally agree. But, after doing hundreds of Permissions / Role implementations I can assure you the documentation will not suffice. Typically, when there is cross-over between departments if you try to use the Standard you end up giving too many permissions. In my experience it is not ideal, it almost never works, and you may as well just assign SUPER to everyone and throw in the towel. There are many tools and options: Permissions Recorder, Page / Report restrictions, search removal, straight custom, a mix of all usually gets you what you want. I have tried every possible way, and the best way for me is to restrict what you need to restrict, leave everything else opened. Light touch. Do just Pages and Reports if possible. Ask what they don't want people to access, not the other way around, else you chase your tail forever.
