User groups

A user group is a group of user accounts with the same access rights. A user account can belong to several different user groups. A user account may belong to several different user groups and will be assigned rights from all of these groups. Please note that rights are inherited in this case. Here you can move accounts from one group to another, add and delete user accounts in different user groups as well as create new user groups. The user groups’ access rights are configured under Access rights. There are a number of standard groups that cannot be renamed or deleted. These standard groups are:

  • All

  • Visitor – Here you can configure common settings for users who are not logged in, or do not have an account.

  • Authenticated – Here you can configure common settings for Corporate customers, Private customers, and Resellers. All users who have logged in belong to this group, in addition to either Corporate customer or Private customer.
  • Private customer
  • Corporate customer
  • Reseller
  • Administrator
