With X-CartAccess Management you can give permissions to manage these sections in the Store Manager. Also you can give permissions to view the information, but not to edit it. This option is very useful if you worry that your personnel could damage your data.

To add users, you need to create roles for each user first. This means that you need to specify what features will be available for this role (viewing, editing, or all operations). Besides, here you may manage roles (add, edit and remove them).

Please, note, that it's recommended to change default Admin password.

After adding roles, you need to create users and assign them to the appropriate role. To create a new user you have to press "+" button, enter User Name, Password and grant an appropriate permission to this user by selecting a User Role. The Status of the account should be specified as well.

Also you may change these details simply by choosing the option form the drop-down list:

E.g. if the role Store accountant Manager has the permissions only to view certain options, like 'Returns', 'Wish list'. but not edit them, then the user Administration who has the role of Store accountant will be able only to view these options, but view and modify the others:
