Access Sage 50 through SDK with less privilege account

Posted By Hiran over 9 years ago

Hi,

I am developing a .NET application to read customer and Receipt details from Sage 50 to import to our Microsoft Dyanmics CRM. Therefore I use Sage 50 SDK to connect to the company and access data via the API. However there are other sensitive data(Salaries, and other financial data) in SAGE 50, which my application should not have access. In that case how can I access the system with a less privilege account (Have read access to Customers and Receipts)?

Thanks

Regards

Hi

I don't think that is possible , using the SDK would mean you have all the access to it's data .

But you may try setting the User inside Sage with less Privileges and then try it yourself.

But when generating the application ID, can't they configure us it based on the seurity rights?

The user security setup in the Sage 50 company can carry into your application through the API.

Sample API code below:

' Check to see if company uses security If (ptApp.CheckCompanyUsesPasswords(sCompanyPath)) Then ' Open company using company user name and password ptApp.OpenCompanySecure(sCompanyPath, "Company Username", "Company Password")

Dear John,

Thank you very much for your answer. Can you further elaborate this ? Where can I find those methods CheckCompanyUsesPasswords(sCompanyPath) and OpenCompanySecure(sCompanyPath, "Company Username", "Company Password")? I could not find any sample code from the SDK samples.

Thanks alot.
