Adding additional users to your online store can significantly enhance the efficiency and scalability of your business. Whether you’re growing your team, delegating responsibilities, or ensuring continuous operation, having multiple users with defined roles allows for smoother day-to-day management. With additional users, merchants can delegate tasks like inventory updates, customer service, and order processing, empowering their team to work together seamlessly. This collaborative approach not only improves the store’s operations but also frees up time for merchants to focus on expanding their business.
The Woo Mobile app accepts two user roles: Shop Manager and Admin. The way you can have additional users accessing the app will depend on how your store is connected.
