How to add another windows user to MS Dynamics NAV valid user? - windows

Question

I installed MS Dynamics NAV from my windows admin account and It's running successfully on admin login. But when I login from another account and start NAV(2016), It shows :
you do not have access to microsoft dynamics nav .verify that you have been setup as a valid user in ms dynamics NAV.
I can't install NAV setup from my windows account as It don't have permission to install anything.
I am totally new to it, need help.

Answer 1

Step 1 - You will need the Windows Security ID or SSID
Open powershell and paste the below code
$objUser = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount("YourDomain\Your ID")
$strSID = $objUser.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
$strSID.Value
Replace YourDomain\Your ID with your Your Domain and USER ID.
Run the code and in the output, you will find the SSID.
STEP 2 - ENTER USER Details in NAVISION Database with Roles.
Open SQL Server Management Studio.
In My Case the database that i want to get access is Demo Database NAV (7-1).
Click on New Query and paste below listed command in the query window.
USE [DATABASE NAME]
DECLARE #USERSID uniqueidentifier, #WINDOWSSID nvarchar(119), #USERNAME nvarchar(50), #USERSIDTXT varchar(50)
SELECT NEWID()
SET #USERNAME = 'YourDomain\Your ID'
SET #USERSID = NEWID()
SET #USERSIDTXT = CONVERT(VARCHAR(50), #USERSID)
SET #WINDOWSSID = 'Your SSID'
INSERT INTO [dbo].[User]
([User Security ID],[User Name],[Full Name],[State],[Expiry Date], [Windows Security ID],[Change Password],[License Type],[Authentication Email])
VALUES
(#USERSID,#USERNAME,'',0,'1753-01-01 00:00:00.000',#WINDOWSSID,0,0,'')
INSERT INTO [dbo].[User Property]
([User Security ID],[Password],[Name Identifier],[Authentication Key], [WebServices Key],[WebServices Key Expiry Date],[Authentication Object ID])
VALUES
(#USERSID,'','','','','1753-01-01 00:00:00.000','')
INSERT INTO [dbo].[Access Control]([User Security ID],[Role ID],[Company Name])
VALUES
(#USERSID,'SUPER','')
GO
Replace
DATABASE NAME - with your database name
YourDomain\Your ID - with your Domain Name & User Name
Your SSID - with SSID as copied in STEP 1
The Query provide SUPER Role to user, if required you can change the Role in the Last part of the query.

Quick way option with powershell, you should change some configurations.
For NAV 2016
$appUser = "XXX\XXX"; # User Name
$appUserFullName = "XXXXXxxxXX"; # FullName
$dataSource = "192.168.100.XX"; # SQL SERVER IP
$user = "sa"; # USERNAME
$pwd = "XXxxXX"; # SA Password
$database = "NAVERP"; # Database
$connectionString = "Server=$dataSource;uid=$user; pwd=$pwd;Database=$database;Integrated Security=False;";
$connection = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection;
$connection.ConnectionString = $connectionString;
$objUser = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount($appUser)
$strSID = $objUser.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
$sqlCommandText ="
USE NAVERP
DECLARE #USERSID uniqueidentifier, #WINDOWSSID nvarchar(119), #USERNAME nvarchar(50), #USERSIDTXT varchar(50), #FullName as varchar(50)
SELECT NEWID()
SET #USERNAME = '$appUser'
set #FullName = '$appUserFullName'
SET #USERSID = NEWID()
SET #USERSIDTXT = CONVERT(VARCHAR(50), #USERSID)
SET #WINDOWSSID = '$strSID'
INSERT INTO [dbo].[User]
([User Security ID],[User Name],[Full Name],[State],[Expiry Date],[Windows Security ID], [Change Password],[License Type],[Authentication Email],[Contact Email])
VALUES
(#USERSID,#USERNAME,#FullName,0,'1753-01-01 00:00:00.000',#WINDOWSSID,0,0,'','');
INSERT INTO [dbo].[User Property]
([User Security ID],[Password],[Name Identifier],[Authentication Key], [WebServices Key],[WebServices Key Expiry Date],[Authentication Object ID])
VALUES
(#USERSID,'','','','','1753-01-01 00:00:00.000','');
INSERT INTO [dbo].[Access Control]([User Security ID],[Role ID],[Company Name],[App ID],Scope)
VALUES
(#USERSID,'SUPER','',cast(cast(0 as binary) as uniqueidentifier),0);
";
$connection.Open();
$command = $connection.CreateCommand();
$command.CommandText = $sqlCommandText;
$command.ExecuteNonQuery();
$connection.Close();
