ABN Lookup button Security Task GP 2015

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Member

Hi All,

I have installed GP 2015 and updated a client from GP 2010. (Australian install)

A user has lost the ABN Lookup button on the Creditor Maintenance Options window.

I cannot locate the Security Task that controls the lookup.

The GP 2015 version of Support Debugging Tool (GP Power Tools) is not available yet to use for checking.

If anyone can please advise me of the Security Task that would be great?

Thanks.

    Hi Geoff

    The GP Power Tools public beta is available for GP 2015 (and GP 2013 and GP 2010).

    However, the ABN Lookup Button is not controlled by Security. You need Australian GST enabled under company options for it to show.

    Regards

    Hi David,

    I have now downloaded GP Power Tools beta.

    Aust GST was already enabled. A power user can see it, but another user cannot.

    I will see what I can find.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi Geoff

    Checking the source code it is only controlled by Australian GST.

    if 'Australian GST Enabled' of globals then

    show 'Tax Invoice Received';

    show 'BrowseTheWeb';

    else

    hide 'Tax Invoice Received';

    hide 'BrowseTheWeb';

    end if;

    Are they using an alternate or modified window which has the field moved/hidden?

    The BAS code must be installed for the button to work, but the visibility is just the one company option.

    Hi David,

    I found out late today after getting a screen shot, that the icon is showing, however they do not have security privileges to access the link when they click on the icon.

    I am unsure where that is located in the security tasks.

    Thanks

    Hi Geoff

    Thanks for the update. That makes more sense.

    If they are getting a security privileges error that would be from the window in the Business Activity Statement dictionary. I don't have an Australian install right now to check the actual form name.

    Install GP Power Tools (even if just on your own system) and use the Security Profiler to get the details and Security Information to identify the changes needed to the security settings.

    The other issue, is to ensure that their firewall does not block the webservice calls, but as a POWERUSER works, I would say that part is fine.

    Hi David,

    Thank you. I followed your suggestion and loaded the GP Power Tools beta, and located the task that was not ticked. It was the ABN Lookup task under Card 301.

    It all works now.

    Thanks for your help.

    Good luck with GP Power Tools.

    Hi Geoff

    Excellent news. GP Power Tools to the rescue.

    You can now use the final release as the beta version will expire on 15-Aug-2015.

    Hi Geoff,

    I have the same issue. Was looking for ABN lookup task but can't find it in Card 301.

    Thanks

    Hi Gie,

    Have you turned on Enable GST for Australia in Setup -->Company--> Company?

    Hi Geoff,

    Thanks for your response.

    Yes GST is enabled. I can see the icon and sa could access to the ABN look window but other users couldn't. This is for GP 2013 (R2).

    I'm looking into this task you mentioned in the earlier thread but can't find it.

    Thanks

    Gie
