New user has activated account but is getting this message when trying to log in: "you cannot access the CP with that account"

Did you gave him permission to CP access or associated him with Admin group? – Max Lazar Sep 26 '17 at 15:17

Does it take time before a new user gets access to the CP? – Kat Sep 26 '17 at 16:32

Seems like a permissions problem. How did you create this user? Did you give them the ability to access the CP? Do you have different user groups? – Damon Sep 26 '17 at 17:23
If a user gets that message when logging in, then it means they haven't been assigned the "Access the CP" permissions in the Control Panel, either directly or through a User Group that they belong to.
