Cause

A problem has been solved that threw a confusing message when setting the Agent quick filter in Process Monitoring.

The message stated that the queue data could not be retrieved, whereas the real reason was that the user had not the required privileges in their user definition.

The message has been adapted to clearly identify the issue.
