Windows user permissions

In the User Group Members window, on a new line, fill in the fields as necessary by selecting from existing users. In the User Group Permission Sets window, on a new line, fill in the fields as necessary by selecting from existing permission sets. If the default permission sets that are provided with Dynamics NAV are not sufficient or not appropriate for your organization, you can create new permission sets.

And if the individual object permissions that define a permission set are not adequate, you can modify a permission set. You can create a permission set manually, or you can use a recording function that records your actions as you navigate through a scenario and then generates the required permission set. Choose the icon, enter Users , and then choose the related link. On a new line, fill in the five fields for the different permission types as described in the following table.

Indirect permission to a table means that you cannot open the table and read from it, but you can view the data in the table through another object, such as a page, that you have direct permission to access. In the Security Filter field, enter a filter that you want to apply to the permission by selecting the field on which you want to limit a user's access.

For example, if you want to create a security filter so that a user can view only sales with a specific salesperson code, you choose the field number for the Salesperson Code field.

Then, in the Field Filter field, you enter the value of the that you want to use to limit access. For example, to limit a user's access to only Annette Hill's sales, enter AH. Go to the various windows and activities in Dynamics NAV that you want users with this permission set to access. You must carry out the tasks that you want to record permissions for. When you want to finish the recording, return to the Permissions window, and then choose the Stop action.

Choose the Yes button to add the recorded permissions to the new permission set. For each object in the recorded list, specify if users are able to insert, modify, or delete records in the recorded tables. See step 7 in the "To create or modify permission sets manually" section. Each individual user of a computer, regardless of age, should sign in with his or her own account.

Each user account has access to a private file storage area and user interface customizations, and to a shared public file storage area. When you sign in to your computer, you have a myriad of options available for doing so.

User accounts can be protected by passwords, but users can choose alternative sign-in credentials such as PINs, picture passwords, and biometric identification. This chapter guides you through procedures related to creating and managing user accounts, managing account pictures and passwords, and customizing your sign-in options. Windows 10 requires at least one user account. Windows 10 designates this first account as an administrator account so that the account can be used to manage the computer.

You can use your Microsoft account to sign in to multiple computers, websites, and services by using the same email address and password. Signing in with your Microsoft account credentials allows you to share settings and files among all your devices. Any device you sign in to with this account can have access to the same settings and information.

Signing in with a local account places limits on the applications you can purchase or download from the Store, and might limit your access to OneDrive. This classification provides a specific level of permission to manage system actions on the computer. We explain what each of these types of accounts can do in the next section of this topic. These are optional designations that make the user account holder part of your family group. The information in this chapter applies to computer user accounts sometimes referred to as local user accounts and not to network domain user accounts.

Windows provides the ability to share one computer among multiple users, or for one user to have multiple accounts for different purposes. To do this, each user account whether a Microsoft account or a local account is associated with a user profile that describes the way the computer environment the user interface looks and operates for that user. This information includes simple things such as the desktop background, desktop content, and Windows color scheme.

It also includes personal and confidential information, such as saved passwords and your Internet browsing history. Each user profile includes a personal folder that is not generally accessible by other people who are using the computer, in which you can store documents, pictures, media, and other files that you want to keep private. It can use any peripheral devices that are either attached or part of your device such as cameras, microphones, or printers without notifying you. It also has access to your location, and can use platform features, such as location history, app diagnostics, and more, which are denied to most Store apps.

Note that while the app has the ability to access these resources, it might not actually do so. For more info about what the app collects or uses, review the privacy policy of the developer.
