Frequently Asked Questions

Standard Business Central does not allow granular control to hide, disable, or restrict individual fields, fast tabs, list parts, or page actions. Acumens Security Management adds precise field level and page level permissions, letting administrators hide, disable, or restrict UI elements and enforce least privilege access.
Business Central cannot block posting actions unless the user has full posting rights, and it does not support user specific posting rules or location based posting restrictions. Acumens Security Management introduces Default Deny, document type posting rules, and location/responsibility center posting limits, ensuring only authorized users can post transactions.
Business Central does not filter lists, lookups, or documents based on user specific dimension restrictions, nor does it apply default dimension values per user. Acumens Security Management enforces dimension based visibility and applies default dimension values when users create new records, ensuring consistent and compliant data entry.
