hi all
can we set for user can and cannot see the factbox in customer card?
for example user A, can open customer card but cannot see the factbox at the right side
but user B, can open customer card but can see the factbox at the right side
does nav provide that?
or we must customize?
thanks

I tried to do something similar but with no success.
Set a boolean (true or false according to a particular test) as value of property visible, but seems that factboxes are invulnerable to it.
In addiction to it, if you set visible to false the factbox is hidden but if user do "Customize this Page" could show all the factbox he want.

if it's user related, you can use permission: i don't remember if it's factbox page or factbox's table permission, but one of those 2 will allow the user to open a page and see an error in the factbox (the container page is not closed, it's just the factbox that shows a permission error text instead of its data).
when a user see that he has not permission for the factbox, he can hide it forever

You will have do some RnD.

1. Remove the SubFormLink from Customer Card attached in the Customer FactBox.
2. Write code under OnAfterGetRecord() trigger in the Customer Factbox page to set the customer (i.e Same as set in SubFormLink Property for FactBox in Customer Card) which would trigger for the user you want only.

Example

If User=A then
FactBoxCustomer.Setrange(FactBoxCustomer.No,CustomerCard.No);

Hope this would work.

You can just not give permission to that Page object in standard NAV permissions. There is no development needed.
