Why Use Multi Sub-Admin User Accounts?
If you’re looking for a way to have multiple users and sub accounts under the same master account, but with different user permissions, look no further.
The Magento 1 Multi User Account extension has everything you need to create and manage sub logins under a single Magento account to restrict access levels for each admin user.
Sending Cart for Approval
|
When a subaccount user adds items to the cart, based on their subaccount permission settings they may be required to send the cart for approval. The subaccount extension is perfect for creating employee accounts with company logins. |
Subaccount user with items added to cart but who must send cart for approval as they don't have the required permission to complete the purchase |
Create/Edit Subaccount Permissions
The Magento 1 Multi User Account Extension turns a standard Magento customer account into one with multiple users and sub accounts with different levels of access permission and unique logins. It creates sub-accounts under a parent customer account (main account).
Master account can add, delete or edit subaccount permissions from their master account dashboard |
This Magento 1 Multi User Extension is a perfect solution for companies that own a B2C or B2B Magento online store and would like create one account with multiple sub logins. Companies can control advanced permissions and limit sub-user access and abilities. For example, one person could be granted the ability to buy merchandise, while another can only view orders and customers and so on. |
Restrict Access of Cart Approval by User Role
|
One of the most important features of the Magento 1 Multi User Extension is the ability to send orders for approval. While a sub account user can add products to the cart, they will need to get approval from the account owner to complete the purchase. This functionality depends on the sub account user permission as set by the account owner. |
Master account can view all carts awaiting approval and approve each individually |
Account Owner Can:
- Restrict Order Creation – Restrict order creation by sub-admin account.
- Maximum Order Amount – Restrict order creation by sub accounts only to a predefined amount. If the total is higher than the set limit, order approval is required.
- Cart Approval Process – Set rights for sub-admins to ask the master account for cart approval.
- Approval Managers – Add other master accounts for the approval of a specific sub account. Each master admin user account can support more than one sub account.
