Symptoms
g_user.hasRole is returning false if users have external roles. If user has snc_external role and any other internal role like 'itil' role g_user.hasRole for itil will return even though user has this role.
Release
ALL
Cause
If the user has the snc_external role, hasRoles() method returns false because the instance considers external users to be without a role.
Resolution
This behavior is expected. snc_external is a special role which is used to indicate a user is an external user. getRole() for an external user always return false since by definition an external user has no role on an instance.
