Financial dimensions: make the fields read only for a security Role (without writing code)

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I found this post where it is described how the Financial dimensions fasttab can be desabled based on access level: https://community.dynamics.com/ax/f/33/t/100310.aspx

However, I wonder if there is a way to make all the Financial dimensions fields read-only using the security elements, Override permissions function or any other non-coding ways? For example on the Work order details form, Fasttab Financial dimensions.

The requirement is to allow the customer to make those fields non-editable for certain Roles.

André, thank you. That helped. It was a little bit confusing for me with all the permissions properties in several places, but it seems to be quite straightforward. Here is what I did to solve my specific issue (grant Read-only access to the Financial dimensions tab in the Work order detailas form for a specific role):

Add the control Tab_Dimension from the form ProdTable to \Security\Roles\<you role>\Permissions\Forms\ProdTable and set the EffectiveAccess to "Read".

Hi Waldemar,

All default dimension fasttabs in AX (or almost all) do have a property called NeededPermission set to manual. The access is arranged in corresponding privileges. You can have a look at this post, to see how to enable it if users don't have access. community.dynamics.com/.../138100.aspx

You can add the controls on the Role and override them to have view riights for certain roles.
