KB248392: "Disabled privileges cannot be granted" error message appears when trying to grant the Use MicroStrategy Desktop privilege to a user in MicroStrategy 10

"Disabled privileges cannot be granted" error message appears when trying to grant the Use MicroStrategy Desktop privilege to a user in MicroStrategy 10

SUMMARY:
In Strategy 10, when administrators try to grant the “Use Strategy Desktop” to a user, user group, or security role they get the error message “Disable privileges cannot be granted”. This document explains the cause of this issue and how it can be resolved.
 
SYMPTOM:
In Strategy 10, when an administrator user tries to grant the “Use Strategy Desktop” privilege to a user, user group, or security role, they get the following error message:

Disabled privileges cannot be granted

CAUSE:
In Strategy 10, a new product called Strategy Desktop was released. It is similar to Strategy Analytics Desktop 9.4.1 with expanded functionality, but Strategy Desktop is a premium product that requires paid named-user licenses for production environments.
A new privilege was introduced in Strategy 10 called “Use Strategy Desktop.” This privilege allows users to use Strategy Desktop to connect to their Strategy Enterprise environment. This privilege can only be granted to the number of users that are named in your license.
Strategy Desktop is different from Strategy Developer, which is an application that allows users to develop objects such as attributes, metrics, and reports. The privilege to use Strategy Developer is called “Use Developer”.
This error message is seen when an administrator user tries to grant the “Use Strategy Desktop” privilege when their license does not contain any named-user licenses for Strategy Desktop.
 
ACTION:
If a user wants to grant a user the “Use Strategy Desktop” privilege, they will need to get a new license key that contains licenses for Strategy Desktop.

If a user wants users to be able to use Strategy Developer, they will need the “Use Developer” located under the Analyst privileges.

Note: In Strategy 9.3.1 and prior versions, Strategy Developer was referred to as Strategy Desktop.
