See how Continuous Monitoring works
Click a topic and Controlly explains how Continuous Monitoring works.
You decide which critical permissions to follow, such as: who can modify items, or who can create invoices? The Authorization Box comes with a standard set and you can add your own.
Result for you
Only notifications about what really matters to your organization.
See it in action
Continuous Monitoring runs on critical permissions. This video shows how you set them up and analyze them in the Authorization Box.
Authorizations change. Do you notice in time?
Permissions in Business Central change all the time: new employees, role changes, adjusted permission sets. Business Central does not warn you when someone gains access to something critical as a result. A periodic review only finds it much later.
No signal from Business Central
A change in permissions triggers no notification. Whoever gains access to critical actions stays under the radar.
A review afterwards is too late
A quarterly or annual review shows what is wrong, but not when it went wrong.
Following everything is not feasible
You do not want to see every change, only the ones that matter to your organization.
Notifications about what really matters
With Continuous Monitoring the Authorization Box watches the authorizations in Business Central for you. You define which critical permissions to follow, for example who can modify items or who can create invoices. When a user, permission set or organization role gains or loses access, you hear about it.
- Monitoring based on the standard set or your own critical permissions
- Notifications directly, daily, weekly or monthly
- In your personal dashboard, by email or both
How it works
Continuous Monitoring is a module of the Authorization Box. You set it up once; after that, it keeps an eye on authorizations for you.
1. Turn on the module
The application manager turns on Continuous Monitoring per database in the general setup of the Authorization Box.
2. Link subscribers
Choose per critical permission which users get a notification and how often.
3. Receive notifications
Each user chooses in their notification settings whether to receive the results in the dashboard, by email or both.
Everything you need to monitor critical authorizations
Critical permissions, subscribers, frequencies and notifications in one module, as an extension to the Authorization Box.
Critical permissions
Your own audit questions
Follow the standard critical permissions from the Authorization Box or define your own questions, such as who can modify items.
Subscribers per permission
The right people informed
Link one or more users per critical permission who get notified when something changes.
Your own frequency
Directly, daily, weekly or monthly
Every subscriber chooses per critical permission how often to be informed.
Dashboard and email
Notifications where you see them
Notifications appear in the personal dashboard, are sent by email, or both.
Full context
Everything in one notification
Analysis date, critical permission with link, conflicting permissions, type, name, company and the date it was added or removed.
Only differences
No noise
You are only notified when the analysis result differs from the previous one.
What is in it for you?
A grip on who can perform critical actions, without searching yourself.
- A signal as soon as someone gains access to a critical permission
- Users, permission sets and organization roles in view
- Only notifications for real differences
Good to know
A module of the Authorization Box
Continuous Monitoring is a separate module on top of the Authorization Box. It works with the critical permissions you define in the Authorization Box.
Up to five critical permissions per user
You can subscribe an unlimited number of users, each for up to five critical permissions. As your environment grows, you can easily extend this number.
Each user sets up their own notifications
Besides the subscription, each user turns on in their own notification settings whether to receive the results in the dashboard, by email or both.
