Hi. After update the BC version to 'current evaluate' I have big problem with my tests. In many situations I get an error related to permissions - for example:

Error Message: Sorry, the current permissions prevented the action. (TableData Locations Management Insert: TestsApp)

This error occurs when test app try to Insert new Locations Management record in Test Codeunit. I have no idea why.

- I run test as user with SUPER permissions

- In effective permissions tabledata 'Locations Management' have all permissions (insert etc) checked

- In properties of test Codeunit I add the line:

    Permissions = tabledata "Locations Management" = RIMD

What more can I do in this situation? I get the same error with some standard objects - like User table. 

I have the same question (0)

Hi, Do you generate the permission set for the TestApp?

PS: al.generatePermissionSetForExtensionObjects is a new command in Business Central 2022 wave 2 (BC21)

More details: https://yzhums.com/29221/

Then assign this permisson set to user, and try again.

A simple example:

Hope this helps.

Thanks.

Thank you for your reply!

Unfortunatelly - still not working. I assigned permissions in permission set file (using the new command), but I got the same error.

In 'effective permissions' table I checked that I have permissions to insert into this table.

Hi, if you are using the On-Pre version, this may be a license issue.

I'm not sure if this is relevant, you can find some details in the MS Yammer link below.

I was helping a co-worker with the same issue today and resolved it by adding the following to the top of the Test Codeunit...
TestPermissions = Disabled;

I read through this post and tried what ZHU suggested but it did not help.
Went back to google and found this page which gave me the solution...
