Username and Password on Intranet -> Navision

Rainer

Does anybody know if this is possible:

1. Customers usernames and passwords are stored in Navision database.
2. Customer login on website (Intra or Inter)
3. System check username and correct password in Navision dba.

Is it possible? I guess its not, cox password is not "read-text".

Any help?

See in http://www.mibuso.com/dlinfo.asp?FileID=172 how to validate a text in the password.

Hi Rainer,

If I understand you correctly, then AFAIK there is no such implementation in Nav already... But it is not too difficult to do it yourself...

I have already done exactly that for a software support department...
You need a new table that holds the username/pass of the customer (you should link it to the Customer table) and then you could use that table from your IIS with SQL statements or ODBC to query (with select statements) and find if a combination exists.

We have also some functionality that a customer asks for a username/pass to the support personel from the site and the personel checks the validity of the customer (usualy by email) and creates the account so that he will be able to login...

It is realy not difficult to build it...

consider using employee portal. it uses windows authentication. employe portal has some limits though.

it is not problem to use NAS for creating some "WebService" which will check the username and password in Navision DB...
