Control admin group features

Post by josepha » Thu Aug 15, 2013 7:09 am

Hello,

Can I make a code modification to a group such as "Order Admins" so the users can view the orders , but they don't manage them ? like cancel/delete/modify or process.
I know that you can customize a group to hide tab or show other to specific users, but can you control their ability under that tab ?

Thanks

Hi,

It should be possible. There is a web.config file in each of the main folders below \admin\. This controls what admin groups can see the features in that area. If you look at the web.config in \admin\store\security\ folder, you'll see an example of how individual files can be restricted by group.

I can't give you the exact code change because I'm not a programmer, but it certainly seems that you can modify the web.config in the \admin\orders folder to do something similar.

I hope this gets you pointed in the right direction.

Thanks,
Katie
