In QA & Prod Please make sure user have access atleast for [1]. This is because the activate/deactivate later are using workflow to execute the action at given time. Let me know if that works for you.    If access is already provided please send log stacktrace during the time frame user trying to activate later.

[1] /etc/workflow/instances to be read, modify, create (read acl)

Did you ever figure out this issue?  We're having a similar problem in that some users simply get an error message when trying to "activate later".  I assumed it was permission related, so tried the r,w,c, read acl permission setting mentioned above, but to no avail.

The stacktrace we get is as follows:

17.10.2013 14:33:58.513 *ERROR* [10.0.104.75 [1382045638475] POST /etc/workflow/instances HTTP/1.1] org.apache.sling.engine.impl.SlingRequestProcessorImpl service: Uncaught Throwable
