Hi Gerry,

There were few such issues reported in 9.0 and 9.1 but most of them were addressed in 9.1 M050. Refer to the following SPR, you can find more on Support page.

I am not sure if your use-case is related to any of these reported issues but there aren't any issues reported in Windchill 10.x and latest release.

That SPR is interesting, but I cannot imagine that it applies to us.
We did migrate from Intralink 3.4 to Windchill at 9.1 M050, and then upgrade soon after to M060.
The affected user has been in the system and working properly (including all groups) since day-one.
Since this is a one-time incident, I'm not too concerned.
It's software. Unexplained things happen.
I just wanted to see if this issue is commonplace, and how others dealt with it.
