Some of you might have had a sneak peak at a few of the new features in build 12 of the Support Debugging Tool for Microsoft Dynamics GP when an early beta version was demonstrated at the Microsoft Dynamics GP Technical Conference 2009. Since then there have been many other changes and improvements.

Over the years, I have seen many requests for Windows Authentication support for Microsoft Dynamics GP, and I have to say I have mixed feelings about it. In theory, it sounds good, but in practice it may be a threat to your customer’s financial information security.
Regardless of authentication method, users will still have to select a company to access which defeats the purpose of having a single sign-on.

Over the last few months I have been working hard on the next build of the Support Debugging Tool for Microsoft Dynamics GP. After just over 130 hours of development, testing and documenting it is finally ready for release. I have made over 30 significant changes to the tool which will make the existing features more robust as well as adding functionality and some completely new features.

From the Microsoft Dynamics GP Application Level Security Series. This is the final article in this series at this time.
Microsoft Dynamics GP version 10.0 introduces a new pessimistic task and role based security model. This new model has a completely different table structure to the previous optimistic user and class based security model. Which means that when upgrading the security settings cannot just be transferred across.

When access is denied by the application security system to a window, you will receive the following error message:
You don’t have security privileges to open this window. Contact your system administrator for assistance.
Sometimes, the window you expected to open does not, which probably means that the security on that particular window needs to be changed. Other times the window still opens even after the security error, which probably means that a hidden system window failed to open.

With the change from the optimistic user and class based security model in Microsoft Dynamics GP v9.0 (and v8.0) to the pessimistic role and task base security model in Microsoft Dynamics GP v10.0, a question that is often asked is how can security settings be transferred between a test and live system.

Why doesn’t the password I use for Microsoft Dynamics GP work for me to access the data in SQL from <insert application name here>?
Why does my password sometimes fail to work from one workstation when it works from another?
Why does the password policy feature only allow one failed attempt before locking me out?
Why is the User ID case sensitive on Microsoft Dynamics GP v10.00?
What is the Password field in the SY_Users_MSTR (SY01400) table used for?
Can I use my Windows or Active Directory Login to access Microsoft Dynamics GP?
I hope to answer all these questions and more by explaining the password encryption that is used by Microsoft Dynamics GP for all users except ‘sa’.
