I've got an addon that checks some user permission for system forms. (i.e. does the user have authorization to the Goods Receipt PO) In 9.3, the GetSystemPermission("username", "64") used to return 1 when the user's effective permission was Full Authorization via a group. Now that we've upgraded to 10.0 PL02, it doesn't!! It always returns 3 for No Authorization. Why has this changed? Is there some other way I can get the user's effective authorization to the system permissions? This affects our entire addon!
Thanks,
David
Dear

1. Which user is used to login to company database. Is it the same user for which you are trying to retrieve the permissions or a different user?
2. If you are using the different user for login, could you please share the settings:
Administration → System Initialization → Authorizations → General Authorizations → Groups tab
Administration → System Initialization → Authorizations → General Authorizations → User tab
3. What is the value set for
"Disable DI API Permission Check"
under the assigned group for login user and the user for which you are trying to retrieve the permissions.
Administration → System Initialization → Authorizations → General Authorizations →
Groups tab
4. Are you able to reproduce the issue in 10.0 PL03 or above? Kindly help to check it as we are unable to reproduce the same.

Hi Ankit,
Thanks for your reply.
The user that's being checked, is the current logged in user. The Disable DI API Permission Check authorization is set to No Authorization for all Groups.
As far as I can see in the downloads section, 10.0 PL03 isn't available yet.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
David

By 10.0 PL03, I was meant Feature Package 2008.
SAP Business One 10.0 FP 2008 (where FP stands for Feature Package, and 2008 for the year 2020 and the month of August). SAP Business One 10.0 FP 2008 was previously known as SAP Business One 10.0 PL03.
The effective authorization is the highest level of authorization that is applied to the user.
For example:
User
U001
is assigned to Group A and Group B for a particular permission item:
U001 Authorization = Read-only
Group A authorization = Full
Group B authorization = None
As a result, the
Effective Authorization = max{Read-only, Full, None}
= Full.
For more information, you can refer to SAP Business One document from "Help → Documentation → Online Help → Administration → Initializing the system → Authorizations → Authorizations Window".
Also, check what is the value set for
"Disable DI API Permission Check"
authorization for login user and the user for which you want to get the effective authorization?
Hope it helps!
