Hi

We are trying to create a PO in Business Central and have managed to get as far as getting a listing of current POs etc.

We get this message:

"Sorry, the current permissions prevented the action. (TableData Purchase Header Insert: Base Application)  CorrelationId:  af0933ee-ed7e-4d8d-a136-d5c7d7680b72."

when we try to POST to create a new PO and also when we PATCH to update an existing PO.



We have registered the app in the Azure Portal but are very confused about how to set user permissions\scope to get WRITE access as we seem only to have READ access.

Does anyone have any pointers? We've trawled through a lot of MS docs but it seems very confused.

Thanks!

    Did you register it in BC Azure Active Directory Applications page and assign the required permission sets for the action? Just like how we do in User card?

    Forgot to say this is in the hosted version (not on-premise)

    Oh, you wonderful, wonderful person!

    I didn't know about this - but yes, this has done the trick!

    Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.
