To block a specific item called ‘Invoice’ that appears in the top menu, accessed through Sales and Marketing >> Sales Orders >> All Sales Orders, you need to locate this item within the security roles. If there is no documentation on these relationships and the control name is not visible, one option could be to search for the form name. However, this would block the entire form, which is not feasible if you want to restrict only the specific item. It would be helpful to have a method for identifying and managing specific elements within security roles

How can I query an element to block in a security role?

Hi Sergio,

The security diagnostics will only give security object information about the menu item you opened, not all elements on the form that might be included in other privileges.

Usually, I use Visual Studio to locate the elements on the form and then use View related roles tooling to find the related security objects.

There are also ISV solutions that provide more information in the application itself.
