Recently we are facing a lot of issue with permission set when we upgrade our BC online customer environment from 17.5 to 18.1. There is a lot of new tables introduce in V18.1 and the user hitting a lot of permission error when login into BC on 1st day after the upgrade.

It's possible that Microsoft has a feature that can auto-update custom permission set that copy from standard permission set in the future. This is to hassle our checking during the upgrade.

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.

I hope Microsoft can consider either auto-update OR providing information on new objects (i.e. table data, page, etc.) of features in used prior to the updates. Permission issue not only cause unpleasant experience to our clients, it also interrupt our client daily operations.
