Issues Impersonating Other Users on ServiceNow PDI using Utah version

 

Hi Guys - has anyone ever / is currently experiencing similar issues and may have a solution how we fix this.

 

I have upgraded my PDI to Utah some months ago.

 

For some reason (please see my screenshot attached) there are very limited options to Impersonate Users?

 

I cannot choose any Users (example the full list of OOTB users that are usually accessible here) - just these couple of names.

 

I haven't seen these issues previous to Utah instance upgrade.

 

Why can I not Impersonate any User I would like to choose and has anyone solved for this issue previously?

 

Many thanks guys for any advice/guidance.

 

Kind Regards.

@WazzaJC You can impersonate an user only when the below conditions are true 

1. Active =true

2. Locked Out= false

3. Web Service access only = false

 

Request you to check all the three fields to successfully impersonate a user.

 

Please mark the appropriate response as correct answer and helpful.

Thanks!!

@WazzaJC Please check if the sys_user records are set to active true, as far as I know you will not be able to impersonate an inactive user.

Hi Arun - the sys_user records are all set to Active = True, so this is not the issue, I have checked.

Thanks.
