           if(LoginStatus == 1)
            {
                user.StatusCode = statusCode;
                user.StatusText = "failed";
                user.MessageStatus = "login failed, incorrect username or password";
Datatable dtGetBranches = DataAccess.ExecuteDataTable(
                           SqlFactory.Queries.Users_GetBranches(
                                                       DataAccess.Credentials.SystemUserID));
user.???? branches_datatable=dtGetBranches 
// how to assign datatable to property of class here and what property for class datatable 
            }
}

A better approach would be to have a separate class with properties for Branch and make it child to the Users. Maybe something like following-

C#

public class Branch{
   public string BranchId { get; set; }
   public string BranchName { get; set;}
}

public class Users
   {
       public string UserName { get; set; }
       public string Password { get; set; }
       public string MessageStatus { get; set; }
       public int StatusCode { get; set; }
       public string StatusText { get; set; }
       public string IpAddress { get; set; }
       public string BrowserInfo { get; set; }
       public IList<Branch> Branches {get;set;}
   }

And to convert your datatable to IList of Branch, you can try doing something like following-

C#

var branches = from yourDataTable in YourDataTable.AsEnumerable()
                select new Branches
                {
                    BranchId = Convert.ToString(yourDataTable["BranchId"]),
                    BranchName = Convert.ToString(yourDataTable["BranchName"])
                };

Please let me know if this doesn't work.

Thanks
