Because of this, all the Remedy Smart Reporting objects (such as forms and links) do not exist on the Remedy AR System server, and the user onboarding process fails.

The Selected company does not contain the user, so unable to make as Reporting Administrator.

For multicompany user onboarding (one-company-at-a-time option), ensure that the user belongs to the company for which you are onboarding. By default, users are assigned to the company that is defined in the Company field under the Organization section of the People form. For more information, see How multicompany user onboarding works.
