Create user groups

Preliminary Remarks

User groups control the rights of Merchant Backend users. It is possible to specifically release individual areas of the Merchant Backend. Some rights are interdependent - the required rights are automatically activated when selected.

In addition, if there are several clients in the Merchant Backend, the user group controls which of these clients the authorizations apply to. Before a user can be created , a user group must exist, as users must always be assigned to a user group.


Create user groups

  • Click on Add a user group .

  • Define a Name*.

  • Select Company* . Determines the client for which the user group is to be created.

  • Optionally select the permission name.

  • Optionally, a description can be added.


Description of the rights of user groups

The user rights that can be selected largely reflect the menu items in the Merchant Backend.  Which dependencies exist and what significance each user right has can be seen in the attached document. There you will find a detailed description of all rights.

Note: If there are new functions in the Merchant Backend, the user group automatically gets the right None and can be adjusted accordingly.
