Restrict search term not working on a new created role inheriting the admin role

Hi there,

I have created an automatic lookup to separate events for different teams so that each events would be assigned a new field "team".

Then I would like to use this field as the restrict search terms for below roles:
1. team_a_admin -> Restrict search terms "team=team_a" + inherit the admin role
2. team_a_user -> Restrict search terms "team=team_a" + inherit the user role

And I found that the new role "team_a_user " is working as I expected. Those hosts not belonging to team A are filtered out.
But the role "team_a_admin" is still showing all hosts.

Tested on Splunk version 7.1 and 6.5, same result.

Would anyone know the way to use the restrict search terms for admin role?

Many thanks.
DA
