Users with the “Create and invite users in any service” permission can invite any user (the current version only supports internal users) to in any of the services defined in the Admin Console supported services. However, the “Create and invite users in any service” is not a master permission, to view and edit users (and in some cases delete), the admin user administrator still requires the “read/add/update/delete” permissions. This is a deliberate by design, allowing service admins administrators to manage their own users while when needed, users with this special permission can assume the service admin administrator role by enrolling his/her their own account to any of the services defined in Admin Console supported services which they want to manage.
