How to disable some modules for one company in address bar in ax 2012

Hi Everyone,

I have a requirement where I have to disable some customized modules dynamically while changing the company from the address bar. I have written a class which disables modules for a particular set of companies. When I am calling my class in SysDataAreaSelect form it is working fine. But if I call my class in Application class->setDefaultCompany(), AX is getting crashed while changing the company.

Please suggest any solution. I would be very grateful.

Thanks & Regards,

Mriganka

Hi Umesh,

I have already tried the first link you have provided i.e. modifying the loadlist() of sysnavpaneoptionsdialog form. But the solution applies for 2009 only. Even if I modify the code for ax 2012, the purpose is not fulfilled which is disabling the modules dynamically during company change from address bar.

Thanks,

Mriganka

Hi Mriganka,

Tough it can be a nice technical puzzle to solve, but can you please explain why you want to do this. It is always best approach to be in line with standard Microsoft design patterns which makes your solutions more robust/maintainable and easy to upgrade in long term.

I assume you want to isolate and prevent your custom modules functionality/data from being accessed by a different company. In case I am correct then Microsoft has released data partitioning feature in AX2012 R2 which takes care of this thing.

Refer to technet.microsoft.com/.../jj728664.aspx.

Why don't you use security framework instead doing customizations?, you can create different roles for each company, so you can limit the acces per company. Doing this way you don't need to modify the standard which make easier future migrations and hotfix installation

If I use partitions, the user will be able to access one or more companies only if they swap to a new client session. But the client wants that even the system administrator should be able to see all the companies in the same client session but when the admin changes the company, the other modules should get hidden and the customized modules assigned to those companies only gets visible.

Therefore if I use partition, the client session will be new as well as the companies assigned to a partition will only appear.

Please suggest...
