Drill downs in the Security Setup windows

This article explains a very simple feature which may times goes unnoticed in Microsoft Dynamics GP 10 and 2010. We have many windows where we define the security related information. They are listed below.

• Security Task
• Security Roles
• User Security
• Alternate Modified Forms & Reports

In the windows listed above, you can drill down into the actual GP form (or) report so that you can view the form or report easily and determine if the security task needs access to that window or not.

Security Task window

Alternate Modified Forms & Reports

In the following security windows, you can directly drill down into the specific security task, by double clicking on the security task name displayed in the window for a specific role.

Security Roles Window

In this window explained below, we can drill down into the specific security role that are listed.

User Security Window

This when defining security, we have a drill down from the user security access definition window into the actual security role, which in turn has a drill down into the actual security tasks, which in turn has a drill down into the actual forms and reports.

Hope this helps the community…

Until next post!
