Global Option Page – "Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page."

I am setting up my Global Option pages as follows:

// ACF options page for global Showrooms microsite content

if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    acf_add_options_page('Showrooms Global');
}

// ACF options page for global Case Studies archive pages
if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    acf_add_options_page('Case Studies Global');
}

// Menu location setup for Showrooms microsite
function register_showrooms_menu() {
  register_nav_menu('showrooms-menu',__( 'Showrooms Menu' ));
}

// ACF options page for global Jobs archive page
if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    acf_add_options_page('Jobs Global');
}

add_action( 'init', 'register_showrooms_menu' );

The Showroom Global and Case Studies Global pages are visible in the admin menu. The Jobs Global appears when I click on ‘Plugins’. If I then click on ‘Jobs Global’ I get a 403 error.

When I look at my Jobs Global field group I cannot see the option page ‘Jobs Global.

Does anyone know how I might get to the bottom of this?

Can anyone tell me where option page info is stored?

Thanks in advance
Martin

If all of these are supposed to be on the main dashboard I would combine this to display all at once:

if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
        acf_add_options_page('Showrooms Global');
	acf_add_options_page('Case Studies Global');
        acf_add_options_page('Jobs Global');

}

Then I would register your new menu on its own since it should appear in your appearance button:

function register_my_menu() {
  register_nav_menu('showrooms-menu',__( 'Showroom Menu' ));
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menu' );
