Navision and Active Directory integration.

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 78

I have a very Simple Question:

In the case of a situation where Active Directory is Integrated into Navision can the following be possible?

1. If the Active Directory Account is DELETED, can the user log-in to Navision?

2. If the Active Directory Account is DISABLED, can a user log-in to Navision?

From the Navision Administrative perspective:

3. If the Active Directory Account is Deleted, will this delete the users information from Navision?

4. If the Active Directory Account is Disabled, will the Navision Automatically Disable the user account in Navision?

From the Navision documentation, I could only find the following information:

"Deleting Users

For both kinds of logins, if you delete a login from one of the Navision login tables, the synchronization process deletes the SQL Server database user account for that login.Note that if you delete SQL Server database user accounts from outside Navision,without deleting the login in Navision, synchronization will create new database user accounts for these users.

Windows Logins
When a Windows login is deleted from the Navision Windows Login table, you are asked if you want to delete this user’s Windows login on SQL Server. Navision does not delete the Windows login on SQL Server automatically.
Database Logins
When a database login is deleted from the Navision User table, the synchronization process will not delete the SQL Server login. It can only be deleted by a SQL Server administrator using a SQL Server tool, such as Microsoft Enterprise Manager. When Navision tries to match user IDs in the User table with SQL Server logins, the uppercase user ID in the User table is matched with the uppercase representation of the logins in SQL Server, regardless of case."

If someone can shed some light on the matter, I shall be most grateful. If you have a answer or not, but you know where I could find literture in the subject, please drop in a reference link.

Thanks in Advance.

    You can't log-in with deleted or disable windows log-in user.

    If you delete the user from active directory in that case that user will show object SID of that user in user table.

    Thank you Sandeep,

    Just a single query in relation to the question:

    If I Disable the account in Active directory, would this AUTOMATICALLY DISABLE the account in Navision?

    Might sound a bit absurd, but i need to cover all instances. Thanks again.
