Can anyone help me with this.
i'm getting this message when trying to create new Profile in Userman
"Error: profile with such name-for-user already exists"

hoping for answers..thanks in advance.

have you tried some other name?

try the "print" command to see what profiles exist already

I've already tried other name still getting the same error,
it seems like I can only create 1 profile per customer..

After updating to latest version of software, all of my customers are facing the same problem. Some of them can add only one profile. For others they are facing problem after editing the profile. Hope Mikrotik team will clear the problem in next update.

Name: 1M

It works !!. But why such a breaking change ? Earlier it was working without any problem.

Apparently the "name-for-users" is an unique value, what cannot repeat.

Like others, I am having the same issue. I was able to resolve this with the work around that was stated earlier. I hope that this gets fixed in later releases.

Edit all your profile in user manager and set name-for-users not empty
or paste this rule in newtrminal

:foreach i in=[/tool user-manager profile find] do={
:local name [/tool user-manager profile get $i name];
/tool user-man profile set $i name-for-users=$name;
}

then create new profile without any problem.
