SYS Dynamics GP User Setup

SYS: Dynamics GP User Setup

Dynamics GP does not allow you to specify if new users should be created in Dynamics GP only, or also added as SQL users. When using Personal Data Keeper you may want to create users only in Dynamics GP to limit the number of User IDs that have access to the SQL Server. The Dynamics User Setup window returns the ability to create a User ID that exists in Dynamics GP only.

Navigation: Tools >> Setup >> Company >> Setup GP PowerPack

Mark the box next to TWK-SYS: Enable Dynamics GP User Setup.

Restart Dynamics GP to enable this feature.

A new navigation item will be added to access the Dynamics User window.

You must be logged-in as SA to create users.

Go to Tools >> Setup >> System >> User.

Select Extras >> Additional >> Enable Dynamics User Setup.

On the Enable Dynamics User Setup window, click ENABLE DYNAMICS USERS. The status bar on the window will indicate that the feature has been enabled. Leave this window open.

The User Setup window will automatically close and reopen. If there is a System Password, you will have to re-enter the System Password after clicking ENABLE DYNAMICS USERS.

The Enable Dynamics User Setup window must remain open while creating Dynamics only users.

When the Enable Dynamics User Setup window is closed it will automatically run the RESTORE NORMAL FUNCTION procedure.

Refer to the Dynamics GP User Documentation for how to create Users.
