Environment

Reproducing the Issue

Customer does not have access to the instance and requested to reset an admin password or create a new super admin by Support Team.

Resolution

As soon as you received the super admin created by support team, this new user will not have any RBP role/group assigned it. This new user is generated with Manage Role Based Permission and with this permission this user will be able to start implementation -- perform the configurations in the system. Please follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Admin Center or search on Action Search - Manage Role-Based Permission Access;
  2. You can find the tool as below:
  3. Now you need to Add this new Super Admin in this feature;
  4. Click on Save and do a Logout and login once again;

Now you have access to Manage the RBP so If this is the first time that you are accessing the system you can follow the KBA : 2855468

If your instance is already implemented and you only have lost the access you need to check if you have a super admin group and a super admin role for this you will need to review the roles and groups of the instance.

You can follow the below steps to review the role:

  1. Go to Admin Center;
  2. Manage Permission Roles
  3. Search by the roles and identificate the Super Admin Role;
  4. Click on the Role and check "Grant thi to:" option, this is also the 2° step of the Role;
  5. Check What is the assigned groups;

Now you have to assign this new user to the group:

  1. Go to Admin Center;
  2. Manage Permission Groups;
  3. Search by the found group of the admin role;
  4. Click on the role and Assign this new user for the group;
