Posted on by Silvia Innamorati 35

Hi everyone,

I'd like to create a View into D365 SQL from Microsoft SQL Server.

The obtained view contains data for PowerBI develop with some filters for BU.

If my user (system administrator) open this db from DBMS have read only access...

I asked you confirm if it's possible to create it or not.

Thanks in advance.

    Hello Silvia,

    Hope you are well.

    I'm not sure i have enough context to help you but will try.

    A CRM user even with system administrator role, when trying to login to SQL will always only be able to READ filteredviews. These views are used for reporting /excel etc.

    If you need to Create  views on CRM DB, your login needs a specific SQL role, such as DBowner or similar.

    Still, creating views on a CRM DB directly on SQL is unsupported, and should not  be performed:

    learn.microsoft.com/.../supported-extensions

    "Modifications to the physical schema of the database, other than adding or updating indexes. This includes any actions performed against the database without using the System Customization capabilities in the web application or using the metadata APIs that are described in this SDK documentation. Modifying tables, stored procedures, or views in the database is not supported. Adding tables, stored procedures, or views to the database is also not supported because of referential integrity or upgrade issues. "
