Hi @chaudhary_pradeep !

Thank you for raising this issue. We are aware of this and we are actively investigating at the moment.
We will keep our support portal updated in regards to this issue.

As you mentioned a current workaround is to grant global permissions to be able to initiate scans.

We are not in position to enable workaround as it give access to all user to delete/edit existing scan engines. Mange engine access is restricted to administrator only.
