Reviewing Authorizations in Dynamics 365 Business Central: Continuous Control

Regular review and continuous monitoring of authorizations are essential for maintaining compliance, detecting deviations in a timely manner, and ensuring the ongoing effectiveness of internal controls in your Business Central environment. Authorization management is not a one-time exercise, but a dynamic and continuous process that is vital for the security and efficiency of your ERP system.

Why Periodic Review of Your BC Authorizations?

Even after a meticulous initial setup, authorizations in Business Central can 'water down' over time. Organizational changes, the implementation of new functionalities, or simply a lack of periodic checks can lead to:

  • Unnecessarily broad rights: Users retain too much access, which brings unnecessary security risks.
  • Segregation of Duties (SoD) violations: The risks of internal fraud and errors increase when tasks are not correctly separated.
  • Operational inefficiency: Users struggle with unnecessarily complex or restricted access, which harms productivity.
  • Uncertainty about control: The feeling of being 'in control' disappears, complicating decision-making.

A proactive review helps identify and address these problems before they escalate, ensuring your Business Central environment is always optimally secured and compliant.
