In order for a Windows login to be able to work in Navision they
must be assigned a role.
Windows logins in Navision correspond to the Windows users and
groups of the Windows domain. If both your domain and clients are
running on Windows 2000, Windows 2003 or Windows XP, and SQL Server
is running on Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server, you can
give Windows users and groups roles within Navision. You can also
make Navision roles members of Windows security groups.
To Give a Role to a Windows Login:
Click Tools, Security, Roles and the Roles window appears.
Select the role you want.
Click Role, Windows Logins. The Windows Logins window for this role appears
displaying a list of the Windows logins that have been given this
role.
In the Login ID field,
select a new line and click the AssistButton . A window appears listing all of
the users that have database logins.
Select the Windows login to which you want to give this
role.
Click OK and this Windows
login will be added to the list of Windows logins that have this
role.
This Windows login has now been given this role for all the
companies contained in the current database.
