Automatically Assigning Users to Groups

In the Automatic Assignment to Groups section, select the user group you want your registered and anonymous users to be part of. To assign a different user group to the store's users, you must verify that the user group is allowed for this store (in the Group editing page, Permissions tab).

 This section is displayed only if the Enable Registration checkbox is selected in the General tab (see Enabling Registration).

For stores in which registration is enabled, the system will auto-assign a permission group to registered users in the Add registered customers to list.

The name of the user group is <Store name> (ID:<ID number>)- Registered Customers and it inherits permissions from the default Customer Root user group.

To view the permissions of the auto-assigned group, go Users > Groups, click the group name in the user groups list and then, in the User Group Setup page, go to the Permission tab. You may modify the group assignment by selecting a different user group in the Registered Users list.

Note that only user groups that are permitted for this store are allowed for selection. To make a user group available for selection, go to the Permissions tab in the user group setup page, and grant the user group permissions for this store.

 For public stores (B2C), the system will auto-assign permission groups to both registered and anonymous users. The name of the anonymous user group is <Store name> (ID:<ID number>) - Anonymous Customers.
