Adding users to your online store can improve the efficiency and scalability of your business. Users with defined roles can facilitate smoother day-to-day management, whether you’re growing your team, delegating responsibilities, or maintaining continuous operations.
With more users, merchants can delegate tasks such as inventory updates, customer service, and order processing. This collaborative approach can improve operations and free up time for merchants to focus on growing their business.
The Woo Mobile App supports two user roles: Shop manager and Administrator. How these users access the mobile app depends on whether your store is connected to Jetpack. Learn about each role’s capabilities.
