Hi all,
I found out that there is one option from Field Properties named "Needed Permission". Which we can set the value and control by Security Privileges and assign to User Role.
However, there is no way to change the value after I create the Form Extension in PU15 with 8.0.
Is there any way I can set the value through X++ coding?
Regards,

We have decided seeing that we cannot extend the NeededPermission property we will create a custom table with form control names in it and then on Initialized of a form look the control up in this table and if it is there, then depending on the flag associated with it, enable or disable it
I wanted to use the same logic in SalesTable but noticed that the extension has the neededPermission greyed out.
In SalesTable, header and line, we do not want all users to be able to change the default taxGroup assigned when the record is created. We make use of an ISV for taxes and we have custom that if the delivery term is customer pick-up then it will automatically assign a taxgroup to the header/line, else it will take the default in the ISV setup.
The neededPermission field would have allowed me to add privileges to the control to assign it to roles for those who can change it manuall and those who can't.
We also found this link: community.dynamics.com/.../role-base-field-level-security-dynamics-ax-2012-amp-d365
However the above is on the table itself. If I set the taxGroup on SalesTable and SalesLine to Read-access for that privilege that is for the role that should not be able to change the default, then it will not write the default value to the DB because the user has only read access to that field on the table.
So how can I assign security to a control in the form? I cannot set the standard control visible = No and add a custom field because the taxGroup field is used by the ISV software as well.
Hi Wilson,
You can set field permissions using the table permissions. If you really need to change the needed permission, you can set the Visible property to 'No' and add a copy of the element where you can set your own NeededPermission as workaround. This will probably not always work in case there is some x++ coding which is managing the behavior of the form control.
Hi Andre,
We are trying to use the Needed permission to hide some of field value from Certain User Role. I know that this can be done under 7.3 and below version because we are able to customize the User Form. However, in Update 15, there is no way to customize the User Form anymore. So I wish to know any alternate way to do the Needed Permission control.

Hi Wilson,
This property cannot be changed using x++ coding. You need to work with privileges to grant access for users. What is the exact scenario you want to achieve?
