Hi,

    Just make sure your AX users don't get deleted from AD.

    I don't know what else you are looking for.

    Hi Nikolaos,

    Yes, we are able to fix the issue, but We need to know how this happened so that we can ensure we don’t get this issue again.  Would you be able to advice?

    Ok. Well we know why you get this error. It's harder to know why it has (presumably) worked in the past.

    But we also know how to fix it, so I guess everything is fine?

    Maybe you did not run this report since last September.

    Hi Nikolaos,

    Thanks for the reply,

    So as you said we tried to check the AD, the users where , but modified in last September. So why this error got suddenly now. Any reasons or possibilities for that???

    I did a web search for "dynamics ax named user license count sid getting error".

    The first search result returned this: [View:https://community.dynamics.com/365/financeandoperations/b/dynamicsnavax/archive/2015/05/03/error-in-getting-sid-when-running-named-user-license-count-report-ax-2012:750:50]

    "From the error I know what the problem is. One of the users can not be found in Active directory."

    So, you have users in your AX user table that do not anymore exist in your AD.
