As a seller/vendor, you may have a team to help you manage your company or store, and having those who have access to what is in control is crucial.

As a store owner or manager, managing your store users’ capability settings will be your friend. Settings control with compatibility settings: Navigate to the ‘Settings’ option in the left menu of your Vendor Dashboard. Look for the button in the top left-right corner:

You can manage different user’s capabilities separately:

• Shop manager’s Capability 
• Shop staff’s Capability

You can manage your store user’s product-level access:

• Submit Products – allow them to create products as pending
• Publish Product – will enable them to publish their products
• Edit live Product – edit already published products
• Delete products – may delete their products

You will have complete control over which user will have access to what type of products:

• Simple
• Variable
• External
• Grouped

You will have complete control over product options. You have complete flexibility to control which product options are added/modified by which user groups –

• Inventory
• Shipping
• Tax
• Linked
• Attributes
• Advanced

Besides these, you may have more advanced controls as well:

• Feature Image
• Gallery Image
• Rich Editor
• Category/Tags
• Featured & Duplicate Product
• Import/Export
• Product Add-ons
• Gallery & Category limit

Orders are the most critical segment for an online store, as Money and Customer information are associated with them. You must control what and how much of an Order you will allow to access/see to your store users. You have a full grief over those –

• View Orders – if you turn this off, then that user will have no access to Orders anymore
• View Order Details – to restrict order details as payment mode, etc.
• Billing address – susceptible customer data
• Shipping address
• Customer Email – customer contact info
• View/Submit comments – restrict see/add/modify order notes
• PDF Invoice

You can manage your store user’s coupon level access:

• Submit Coupons – allow them to create coupons as pending
• Publish Coupon – will enable them to publish their coupons
• Edit live Coupon – edit already published coupons
• Delete coupons – may delete their Coupon

The control of your store is endless, and it is essential to implement the necessary settings to ensure you protect your account.
