27
Most of the customers are using custom permission sets. Especially full permissions on all the tables except Customer(Table18), Vendor (Table23) and Item (Table 27) (read only). In this case whenever a new tables are introduced as a result of version upgrade, they need to manually maintain these roles and permission times everytime which is time and effort consuming process. Hence request to implement new functionality where the existing permission sets can be automatically updated on the new tables.

In an attempt to raise awareness. This is a growing and large problem. Every customer environment that we have worked in / on from the late 17's through 18.2 have required additional permission set updates to custom permission sets.

When the update rolls out the customers experience is terrible ranging from problems with specific features / functions to not even being able to login to D365 BC. The user experience alone and business impact to each of these companies his a huge issue affecting customer adoption and perception.

Add to that the additional time it takes to correct depending on the number of custom permission sets, and then multiplying that across every customer environment you can see how this quickly adds up to a lot of time or overhead.

With the frequency that these updates are rolling out something needs to be done to address this.
