As I begin to wrap up a Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 R2 production upgrade from Microsoft Dynamics GP 9.0, I ran into a small issue at my client. After deploying the new SSRS reports, and as users were getting ready to try them out, we realized that some 15 logins needed to be assigned to a number of the 24 default database security roles created for the SSRS reports.

| User Mappings (some information blurred to protect the client’s identity) |
This would be a bit cumbersome giving the share number of clicks required to accomplish this feat. In addition, we had just setup Microsoft Dynamics GP security, and given that the SSRS database roles were similar to those in GP, something needed to be done to automate the assignment of these roles based on Microsoft Dynamics GP security roles.
As a result, I created the following script:

CLOSE c_reportsecurity;
DEALLOCATE c_reportsecurity;
The script looks at the Security Assignment User Role table (SY10500) and retrieves the physical company database from the Company Master table (SY01500), then assign an SSRS database security role to each of the Microsoft Dynamics GP default roles. If a role does not exist, you can choose to leave the assignment blank.
The script then proceeds to evaluate the database security role obtained, then creates a SQL string that can be executed. The SQL string uses the sp_addrolemember system stored procedure to add the corresponding SQL login to the role. A cursor is used to loop through each user, company, and security role combination to obtain and assign the proper SSRS database role.
You can choose to add custom security roles or roles for third party applications that deploy their own SSRS reports to the above script.
This definitely helped saving some time… phew!
Until next post!
