Is there a way in GP7.5 to restrict a user to only see a single SQL Database/Server when they login to GP? Thanks

It's unclear exactly what you want to do. In GP, you can restrict access by user to the company databases via the User Access window. When you set up the ODBC DSN, you are determing which database server the user can access through GP. Additionally, if you happen to have multiple servers, the best way to handle it is to have different user accounts. -- Charles Allen, MVP "JDR" wrote: > Is there a way in GP7.5 to restrict a user to only see a single SQL > Database/Server when they login to GP? > > Thanks > > > >
callenWhat I'm referring to is the ODBC connections that are listed in the
dropdown on the initial login screen for "Server".
Server:
User ID:
Password:
Since there will always be numerous ODBC connections enabled, if the
"Server" dropdown normally shows database1, database2, database3 ideally I'd
like the user to only see database1 so that the wrong connection isn't
accidentally used.
Does that make sense?

It makes sense but I've never had a user have a problem with this setting. I typically name the connection something like Great Plains Login or something obvious. The last one used gets saved in dex.ini. Unless there's a setting in dex.ini you can change or a customization you want to use, I would limit the ODBC DSNs on a user's machine and go with the obvious one. Plus, it won't take many times for the user to pick a wrong one and try to log into GP unsuccessfully before he will hopefully stop. -- Charles Allen, MVP "JDR" wrote: > What I'm referring to is the ODBC connections that are listed in the > dropdown on the initial login screen for "Server". > Server: > User ID: > Password: > > Since there will always be numerous ODBC connections enabled, if the > "Server" dropdown normally shows database1, database2, database3 ideally I'd > like the user to only see database1 so that the wrong connection isn't > accidentally used. > > Does that make sense? > > "Charles Allen" <callen@nospam-bkd.com> wrote in message > news:C8356165-10FA-453C-9C96-1CB7FBCF954C@microsoft.com... > > It's unclear exactly what you want to do. > > > > In GP, you can restrict access by user to the company databases via the > > User > > Access window. > > > > When you set up the ODBC DSN, you are determing which database server the > > user can access through GP. > > > > Additionally, if you happen to have multiple servers, the best way to > > handle > > it is to have different user accounts. > > -- > > Charles Allen, MVP > > > > > > > > "JDR" wrote: > > > >> Is there a way in GP7.5 to restrict a user to only see a single SQL > >> Database/Server when they login to GP? > >> > >> Thanks > >> > >> > >> > >> > > >
What we want is to limit what the user can see. Of course we can set up security so that the user can't access the other ODBC connections. But you stop even the attempts or the inquiries about the other connections if they can't see the other connections when logging into great plains. Is also simplifies the valadation process for your software. If the connection doesn't show up you don't have to explain how the user is secured out of each other ODBC connection.

SonnyPawchukSonny- I just wrote a tiny little modification to Dynamics GP that prevents changing the datasource. GP stores the last used datasource in the dex.ini file, so what you could do is: 1- log-in using the desired datasource. This will store the datasource in the dex.ini file, and it will default into the Datasource (Server) field the next time you log-in. 2- Then, install the modification. If the Datasource name ever changes, you'd need to edit the dex.ini file to reflect the new name. I'll give it to you if you want it.

Access Security does not work
Hello, We are are on CRM 1.2. The security settings don't seem to work fully. For example, I have setup a security role called "Field Sales".

But neither seem to be working because users are able to see every account and every quote out there.

How do I create a from that looks like a table or a spreadsheet? So for instance it has 10 or more rows and 4 columns. I would like to hide the labels so that it looks like a spreadsheet as well. I assume it would attach a unique number to each cell like excel does A1, B1, and so on. I would think that it could do this automatically. On Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:15:01 -0800, Jwil <Jwil@discuss...

I have done this successfully in the past with other controls, and the code I have (setting the Width and Height properties of the control based on the size of the window) works here, except for one problem: ...

Access Security does not work
Hello, We are are on CRM 1.2. The security settings don't seem to work fully. For example, I have setup a security role called "Field Sales". One of the access rights is to be able to read only user's own records for accounts and quotes. The icon with only one "pie" on it. But neither seem to be working because users are able to see every account and every quote out there. But if I revoke read access fully, it seems to stop them from seeing quotes and accounts, this is in-line with the documentation. The moment I switch on the read only for user's own r...
Access form set up
Hi, I've used excel for years but I'm completely new to Access (I've done the online training modules and that's about it) and have what probably is a simple question. How do I create a from that looks like a table or a spreadsheet? So for instance it has 10 or more rows and 4 columns. I would like to hide the labels so that it looks like a spreadsheet as well. I assume it would attach a unique number to each cell like excel does A1, B1, and so on. I would think that it could do this automatically. On Tue, 16 Feb 2010 15:15:01 -0800, Jwil <Jwil@discuss...
GP Project accounting... Direct ODBC access
I am integrating our main Project Management product with GP PA. This involves inserting time-phased budget and forecast data into GP PA. I believe this is stored in the PA Budget Periodic Totals Master File (PA01304). My main queries are: 1) Are there any other tables that depend on this table? What other records need to be updated to maintain data consistency? 2) What other tables are PA01304 records based on? Will GP PA overwrite my data if other data is changed? I already have an ODBC application that integrates other data from our product into other tables with no probl...
Linking Jpegs in Access 2003 Forms
First of all let me say, I'm NOT a programmer. I went a bought several books on Access 2003 inorder to create simple databases forms. I've created a form for our little company which I wish to display the employee's picture on the form. When I follow the procedures in my book, all that is displayed in the name of the jpeg and not the actual picture. If I click on the name the picture is displayed in another window. I have went on the web and read so much that I'm crossed eyed. I've reinstalled MS Picture Manager like one article said and still no joy. Is there a SI...
Access 2.0 to Access 97 10-07-04

Please note that you might have code that needs to be updated or...
Access violation in CDaoQueryDef::Open or CSimpleStringT::GetLength(). VC++ 6.0 app compiled in Visual C++ .NET
Hi, I have a problem using DAO in Visual C++ .net Standard edition. We have an old project created in Visual C++ 6.0 Professional. The projects compiles, links ok (with a lot of warnings telling the DAO-classes are deprecated). The compiled program executes ok until I am about to access the database. Some accesses goes ok, but some are not. It is always the same databse accesses that the program crashes on. The database that I'm using is Access 97. I also have tried converting it to 2000 and 2002. In this function the crash occurs in daocore.cpp: void CDaoQueryDef::Open(LPCTSTR lpszName...
MFC .exe gets access violation exception in release version but not debug
Hello, thanks for trying to help. I have an MFC .exe that gets an access violation (C0000005) exception in the release version but not the debug version. So I don't know what line of code causes it. But why should they act differently in this way at all? The exception occurs when a tab on a property sheet is being clicked. The only output in the debug screen when the tab is being clicked is "Warning: skipping non-radio button in group." Would that cause it? Does tab order determine groups along with the tab stop property? What are reasons why MFC code would get an access ...
web access and office error
When someone logs into the outlook web access page (exchange 2000 server and IE) they can read mail fine. But when they try to reply or create a new message they get the following error: Please wait while Microsoft configures Microsoft Office SR-1 Professional. then they will get: The feature you are trying to use is on a CD- ROM or other removable disk that is not available. This happens on numerous machines but mostly public library machines. I assume it has something to do with the office install but why would the web page need office? she can cancel this (at least 5 times before it ...
Access to Adobe PDFs
I have looked at Stephen Lebans' really neat access to PDF thing and it looks as though I could use this in my databases, however I am not knowledgeable enough to know how to get it into one of my databases or how to change the coding to cause it to "print" one or more of my reports let alone cause the report to be saved in a specified folder. Can Anyone help me? His instructions are pretty clear. Specifically what do you need to know? Put the DLL in the same folder, or the Windows\System32\ folder, copy the code (and his form, if you like) to your database, and it will wo...
Access 2007 Special Effect Text Box Won't show Sunken with Window XP
Hi All I am just getting to grips with Access 2007 and one of the quirks I have found is that when I design using Windows in XP Windows-Classic colors and set the text boxes on forms' special effect property to "sunken" They appear as sunken in the correct manner. However, when I change to the Windows XP color scheme the forms text boxes appear flat even though the special effect property has not changed. Any ideas or is it a new quirk we have to live with. I haven't tried it with Vista yet. That should be interesting Thanks Bob "bobdydd" <reallyuseful2004...
Multiple IM db files
Hi Is there way to merge 2 IM db files into one file ? Thanks Hi Pat, Here is what you can do: 1) Open Integration Manager 2) Go to File>>Import Integrations 3) You can Browse out to the other IM.mdb, click "Open" 4) You can now highlight the Integrations and and click "Import" to combine the .mdb files. If there is another integration of the same name it will warn you and ask you to rename the one you are importing in. Hope this is helpful!

How to run an access project which start from the main menu
I want my main menu screen to run first, but without any Access windows displaying in the background. Only the main menu and then it to perform what i request to do. How to make the main menu screen come first without any forms behind, not even Acess db window? Diyana, I never claim to be an Access expert, but the folks in this group have been a great help. This should be an easy fix. I have my database setup like this. On the menu bar when your database is open, select "Tools", "Startup". When the window opens, on the top right, there is a combo box "Display ...
