Dear DBA Gurus, I solved the problem by incorporating the authid current_user clause. I didn't explicitly grant any roles or privileges to system user. The modified code is as below: create or replace procedure create_user (name IN VARCHAR2) authid current_user IS BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'create user ' ||name||' '||'identified by '||name||' '|| 'default tablespace users temporary tablespace temp'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'grant connect, resource to ' ||name; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'create table '||name||'.aaa(a number)'; EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'create table '||name||'.bbb(b number)'; END; Thanks Amol Joshi for giving the suggestion to use auth_id current_user clause in the stored procedure code.
