This is because the user is statically assigned to specific sites at the time of creation. A multi-organization user is not an administrator; it is still a customer-level user with access to multiple organizations. As such, its privileges are intentionally lower than those of an admin user. The user is only allowed to access the organizations explicitly assigned to it, and all other sections are hidden accordingly. SSO/SAML admin users: SSO/SAML users are not allowed to update other local accounts' passwords, no matter what their roles are. Below types of users are allowed to change the password of other local accounts: Local accounts. FortiAuthenticator accounts(remote auth - not SSO/SAML). RADIUS accounts(remote auth).
