To the 'write access error', there does seem to be a bit of conflict or at 
least confusion in the documentation. The statement in your original post, "An 
individual with a BMC Remedy AR System Read license can act on-behalf-of 
another individual, group, or company." is a true statement but only if they 
happen to be the first person to do this for the 'other' entity. Subsequest 
read-only licensed individuals who try to perform an on-behalf-of action for 
that entity will get an error. As was stated earlier, the first action creates 
an entry in ENT:Enttitlement Generate QUAL/CACHE form, but the second person 
receives the error when updating this record. This is standard age-old ARS 
licensing behavior.

There is another note on page 19 of the SRM User's Guide that states: "Users 
who are allowed to submit requests on behalf of another user must be assigned a 
fixed or floating license so that they can manage the requests after submitting 
them on behalf of the other user." So, in one place we're told only a RO 
license is needed, then in another we're told a Write license is needed (at 
least to 'manage' the requests). Based on the fact that users need to modify a 
record created by a different user, Write license wins.
