When you want to give an employee or associate access to the administration functions of your MIVA Merchant system, begin by creating a User record for them. Once they exist in the system you can assign appropriate levels of access.
An administrator has global access to all functions of your MIVA Merchant system, including the ability to view, edit, change, or delete any aspects of the stores within the domain. When a user is an administrator, there will be a check mark in the Users list in the column under Administrator. If the user has permission to create new users, there will be a check mark under Create Users.
A store manager has complete access to their particular store, including the ability to view, edit, change, or delete any aspects of that store. This does not give them the ability to make domain-level changes in your system, or to work in any other store.
Any user can be assigned to a Store Administration Group, with specific privileges within a specific store. If you want a single user to have limited access to a store, like a clerk who needs to update your customer list, create a group with the appropriate privileges, and assign the clerk to that group.
For more information on Store Administration Groups, see the Groups and Add Groups Help topics.
