Is there a way to print or export a file with all of the poweruser tasks?

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

My auditor wants a list of the tasks associated to the Poweruser role.  When I try to list them in GP (Tools=>Setup=>System=>Security Roles) and select the Poweruser role, the print display does not display any of the task for a Poweruser.

    Howdy,

    Oh, what a joy!  It's audit time again. I marvel at the auditors trooping in and trying to 'audit' GP's security model. All they really need to know is who has access to what. A task list isn't going to get them there. Let's not even start them down the road of table security and report writer :)

    Good luck!

    Thanks for the help.  I have listed the tasks from the SY09000 table which should suffice for the audit.

    As Mark says, security is not checked for POWERUSER, it is bypassed. But if you goal is to get a list of every task in your system, you can get that from the SY09000 table in the DYNAMICS database.

    There isn't away to do that that I'm aware of. This is one of the items that Andy Snook of FastPath preaches about. PowerUser isn't so much a role as it is an override. If the code sees power user, it skips checking for permission. He recommends creating a role to take the place of PowerUser and giving it access to everything if you need that role.
