Overview:
When the user modifies the Manager field in Person Object, the error shows "User does not have permission to edit User Records". But the user already has both the User and the Person object's Edit permission for all related fields. Why does this error happen?
Root Cause:
To edit the "Manager" field in the "Person" record, the user also needs to have the Manage User Object permission besides the User and the Person object's Edit permission.
Solution:
The Admin can add the Manage User Object permission for the user by following the below steps:
- Navigate to Admin --> Users & Groups --> Permission Sets.
- Click the Permission Set name that assigns to the user.
- Navigate to the Admin tab --> Security --> Users. Select the Manage User Object then Save the change.
