In UI15, Security Admin is removed as a role immediately after elevating privileges using the Elevate Privilege popup page and after instance url is reloaded/refreshed Description At times, the security_admin role is lost immediately after elevating privileges using the 'Elevate Privilege' popup dialog.

This issue happens inconsistently and hard to reproduce.

Steps to Reproduce

Select the security_admin option.. Click OK . Perform steps 2-4 above from any existing ACL form record. Note that the security_admin role is elevated that one time. The Elevate Privilege popup, however, still shows the security_admin role as cleared. Move away from the ACL form record, for example, go to ACL list. Note that the security_admin role is immediately revoked. Verify by checking that the New button is absent in the ACL list. Workaround There are two workaround options:

Click on the padlock one more time and re-elevate again Switch to UI16 Related Problem: PRB632217
