How to Create User Groups
Control what happens on an e-commerce store by setting user permissions. Create a user group with specific permissions and assign a user to the group.
Last updated 17 days ago
Upmind lets you manage staff permissions through Staff Groups. We’ve provided a set of predefined groups to make setup easier. These include default permissions for general roles:
Finance
Fraud
Marketing
Product
Support
You can assign staff to any of these predefined groups directly or customise them as needed.
You can also create your own staff user groups with access to specific functions. Upmind does not assign permissions directly to staff users. Instead, users inherit the permissions of the group they’re assigned to. To change the level of access that a user has, simply reassign that person to a different User Group.
You can assign a staff user to more than one User Group.
Example: Joe Bloggs could be Account Staff on Brand A, and Support Staff on Brand B.
Creating a user group
On the Upmind dashboard, go to Settings > Staff Groups under Users and Permissions.
Click the Create user group button.
Enter a group name.
Scroll through the Functionalities page and check the relevant boxes to assign group permissions.
Click the Select all button to check all boxes in a subcategory. (optional)
Click Save.
Assigning staff users to a user group
The next step is to assign staff users to one or more User Groups.
Go to the Admin dashboard.
Click Settings > Staff users under Users and Permissions.
Locate a staff user, click the gear icon, and select Manage user.
Scroll down the Staff overview page and set User Group permissions.
🚧 If you have multiple brands, grant access to each brand separately.
Select Administrator to grant the staff user full access to all User Groups and all brands.
We suggest granting Admin permissions to a maximum of two staff users.
