Tools—>Security Console—>Roles—>Create Role.

Click on Next.

Click on Add Privilege to Role.

Click on Next.

Click on Next.

Click on Next.

Custom Role XX Test Custom Role is created.

Now create two user Test_User1 and Test_User2.

Run below program again:

Import User and Role Application Security Data

Click on Submit.

Now let us login with user Test_User1 with assigned role and go to Scheduled Process.
