User Permission Sets
To improve security in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and to stick to Microsoft security requirements, Sana Commerce Cloud provides several permission sets that can be used to limit the rights of the users who are working with Sana Commerce Cloud in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
- SC - SANA APP: This permission set is sufficient and has enough rights to connect Sana Commerce Cloud to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It gives access to all required business logic in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. It must be assigned to the user that is used to establish connection between a Sana webstore and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. For more information, see Create a User.
- SC-MANAGER and SC-SYSADMIN: These permission sets can be used for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central users who work with the Sana Commerce Cloud add-on in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. They have limited permissions and give access to the Sana Commerce Cloud add-on in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and other standard functionality required for Sana. Most likely, you will need to use these Sana permission sets in combination with some standard Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central permission sets depending on the functionality you need access to. These permission sets have access to quite a lot of functionality in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central because Sana Commerce Cloud works with different standard functionality such as items, customers, sales orders, etc., and therefore must have access to it.
- SC – LIMITED USER: This permission set has limited rights and access only to the Sana objects without pages. This means that the user with this permission set has access to the Sana objects but does not have access to the user interface of the Sana Commerce Cloud add-on in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, for example, cannot open the Webshop Card and all other windows of the Sana Commerce Cloud add-on. For example, if users work with items in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, users may encounter a problem that they do not have enough rights. This is because if the Sana Commerce Cloud add-on is installed, the items will have Sana custom fields, which will block the user from working with items. In this case, the SC – LIMITED USER permission set can be added to the user to solve the permissions problem. This permission set can be used by companies where employees have very limited access to the data they can work with.
It is important that Sana's permission sets are also added to all Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central users who work with data, even those who do not work with Sana Commerce Cloud directly. This is necessary because Sana must read any changes to the data in ERP it uses, including changes made by any users. Users in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central without Sana's permission sets may encounter errors in the system informing them that they do not have enough rights to view certain data.
