User is blocked from deleting a category |
Use Case: Creating a Product Manager
Role allowed to edit products, but not categories |
The Advanced Permission extension helps you creating the role of Inventory Manager, Customer Specialist, Order Reviewer and much more. For example, a Product Manager can be allowed to create, edit and delete products. However, the editing categories would be completely blocked. Adapt the role to match the needs of your eCommerce. |
Using the Advanced Permissions Extension
- Assign an admin user to a specific website or store view – The main admin can assign any admin user to view and edit information like products, categories or orders related only to a specific website or store and not to all of the site
- Create Specific Roles – The admin can assign custom scopes, products and categories to each role. This ensures the power to distribute permissions in the most efficient way.
- Adapt According to the Store’s Needs – The extension is set up in an easy to configure way. It’s possible to perform general role assignments and, if the eCommerce demands, extend and deepen these settings.
- Streamline Management – The specific roles ensured by the extension have the potential to streamline every step of the store management process.
