Hi;

After I try to create a user again (without deleting the user), You can 
modify (create actually) the user using:

sacctmgr create user  name=foo Defaultaccount=xyz set 
partition=par1,par2,par3

This command create 3 different associations, if there arn't already. 
You can see result using:

sacctmgr show assoc where user=foo
