Vendor Sub-Vendor User Management

Permissions

In order to see the Vendor Subvendors menu item in the admin, the ACL item must be selected for the rule (unless you are admin):

User Roles > [Select Role] > Role Resources > Omnymart > Vendor Subvendor


Creating a Sub-vendor role

A Sub-vendor role is defined as role that sits under a Vendor Admin and is used to provide restricted access to a Vendor's own account.

For example a Vendor can create a Sub-vendor role to manage marketing, manage orders only, manage full account or manage quote requests.

The option is available under the User Roles > [Select Role] > Role Info Tab


Creating a new Sub-Vendor Role

Only the Marketplace Owner / Admin and Vendors can create a new Sub-Vendor Role.

NOTE: There has been a menu restructure in Omnyfy Release v4.0.6, and some menu items from this guide may have moved. Please see the menu update in the release notes if you are on this release or later: View the Release Notes for Omnyfy v4.0.6

Go to Marketplace Management > Business and Location > Vendor Subvendors

Any User Roles created above that are set to be a Subvendor User Role will appear under the User Role tab.

MO / Admins:

  • Admins can see all subvendors

  • When an Admin is creating a new subvendor, they are presented with ‘Parent Vendor’ dropdown under the User Info tab

  • They will fill in this form with the required details (it is like creating a new backend user form), but they must select a vendor the subvendor belongs to

  • Once the User Info items are filled, they need to choose the User Role

  • Click Save User and the user will be created

Vendors:

  • Vendors can only see Sub-vendors that belong to them

  • Vendors will not see the ‘Parent Vendor’ tab, their vendor_id is used to populate this field in the backend (to tie in the Sub-vendor to their account)


  • Select the Subvendor Role that the Vendor wishes to assign to this Sub-Vendor User

  • Click Save User and the user will be created
