I have create a new role like "Product receipt".

My requirement is ,

Suppose , If I assign this role to specific user, the particular user when open the Posting Product Receipt form below marked option should be disabled.

*** This should be applicable for only one entity.

AP - Receive - Product Receipt - Posting Product Receipt

Kindly let me know how will achieve this?

Please give me more shed on this.

    Hi @rp@n,

    There is no deny permission in AX 2012. You can't achieve it with security configuration only. If you want to do it with help of security settings, then you need to change the form controls and set the property NeededPermission to manual. Then on the roles which would need access, you have to add specific permissions to these controls.

    It would be probably easier to do all with custom coding on this form. Check the company and role and depending on the outcome disable the buttons and make the controls non-editable.

    I agree with Andre. It's much simpler to manage with code. You can check if the user has the relevant role by modifying the code I shared below.

    The thing is, there should be a method in the global or in one of the frequently used classes, but if you use securityRole.AOTName (not sure about full Name),  with select firtOnly, it will work

    Exactly what kind of sample do you want? Actually, you have everything you need right now.

    You can use the above code to check if the user is included in that role.

    You can check which company you are in with "curExt()".

    You can use "args.caller" if you are going to add a special control about the form you came from

    Lastly, You can write this process in the init of the form.

    The rest is to combine this information and decide to disable/enable the control.

    You can open a field in the parameter table and keep it there, or you can use a Macro as in the example below.
    However,in these solutions too, if the name of the relevant role in AOT is changed, it will fail. Basically, there is no serious difference from writing hardcode.

    #SysSecRole

// Production Manager = 'ProdProductionManager'
select firstonly AotName, RecId from securityRole where securityRole.AotName == #RoleProdProductionManager;
