When we add this new permission in granted.policy which is located in ${com.sun.aas.instanceRoot}/generated/policy/our-application/module1 it works perfectly. But because our application has about 14 module, we do not want to copy the same granted.polcy in each folder.

It's also allowable to use wildcard character (-) to address a sepcial directory and all its files and subdirectories in security.policy.

It should work. Not sure why you are seeing a problem. Infact by
putting permissions such as AllPermission in server.policy you can
override what is present in granted.policy (which is ofcourse dangerous).
