Business value
AL developers can now elevate specific permissions in the critical code paths, such as company initialization or the sign-in process.
Feature details
We're introducing a new attribute for procedures, InherentPermissions, which is available for on-premises deployments only in this release.
Example:
[InherentPermissions
(PermissionObjectType::Table, Table::"Retention Period", 'ri’)]
Within this method, all users will have at least indirect permission to read and to insert into the specified table.
