Resolution

Upgrade the Desktop Client to same version level and manually update the agentgroup permissions to allow for all groups.

• If you are using AgentGroup, you must add the permissions for each AGENTGROUP manually. Otherwise, the jobs using AgentGroup will not run.
• If you are using the latest Workload Automation DE Server version – 12.3/12.4 and lower version of Desktop Client or Web Client, it will not display the dashboard for the users with AGENTGROUP permission.
