      Click "Start", in "Start Search" type "gpmc.msc" and press Enter
      Click to expand "Forest" > "Domain" > "Domain Name of your Organization"
      Right Click in "Default Domain Policy" and click on "Edit"
      In "Computer Configuration", click to expand "Policies" > "Windows Settings" > "Secutity Settings" > "Local Policies", then click in "User Right Assignment"
      In the Policy panel seach "Log on as a batch job" policy, on "Log on as a batch job" policy right click and select properties.
      In "log on as a batch job Properties" window, click to check "define these policy settings:"
      after that click "Add User or Group" and include the user or group do you need..
      and click OK to close all open windows.
