Data Classification in LS Central
With the GDPR Regulation, all data in LS Central can now be classified.
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation, which came into force on May 25, 2018, moves the issue of data protection onto organizations, forcing them to identify and protect sensitive personal data of EU citizens.
To help you comply with the new regulation, all LS Central fields have now been classified in the same manner as the Dynamics Business Central fields.
Note: This classification is a recommendation – it is up to you to make sure you are following your local regulations.
There are two levels of classification: Data Classification and Data Sensitivity Classification.
- Data Classification requires access to the database tables, and can be set by Microsoft Partners. Learn more about classifying data.
- Data Sensitivity Classification can be performed by anyone who has access to the IT Manager Role Center. Read more about Data Sensitivity Classification.
If GDPR applies to your company, we urge you to take all necessary steps to understand its implications and comply with it.
Note: Compliance with the GDPR is your responsibility.
The Microsoft white paper Supporting Your EU GDPR Compliance Journey states:
“Given how much is involved, you should not wait to prepare until GDPR enforcement begins. You should review your privacy and data management practices now.”
