Error message when you try to open the SmartView window in Microsoft Dynamics GP: "EXECUTE permission denied on object 'zDP_MXLS0011F_1' database 'xx’, owner 'dbo'"

To resolve this problem, run the Grant.sql script against the Microsoft Dynamics GP company database.


Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013, Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 and Microsoft Dynamics GP 10.0:

Run the grant.sql script against the company database and dynamics database as follows:
1. Make a current backup for safe-keeping.

2. Ask all users to exit GP. 

3. Path out to your Dynamics GP Code Folder on the server: A typical location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\GP\SQL\UTIL.

   Note:  If you have files in this folder, go to step 4. However, if you do not have any files in the UTIL folder, then you will need to extract the files using the steps below: 

     b. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics\GP\Data and open the DEX.INI file in Notepad.

     c. Add the line below to the end of the dex.ini file.       
duExtractSqlResources=TRUE

     d. Then close the file, saving your changes.

     e. Now run ‘GP utilities’ to extract the files and check the path in step 3 again and the grant.sql file should be there now.

4. Find the Grant.sql file in the UTIL folder and copy it into a query window in SQL Server Management Studio. (If you double-click it, it should open in SQL Server Management Studio if you have it open. If not, then open it with Notepad and copy and paste it into a SQL query window.)

5. Run it against the DYNAMICS database.
6. Then run it against the Company database.
7. Have the user test again.
