The Store Manager Role
There is a specific role designed for store managers that includes all of the necessary features to effectively manage a single location. A store administrator is able to perform the following tasks on only the store for which they have permission.
Important: To allow store managers to manage their own stores, they must have the Locations Editor direct roles associated with their user account. The store viewer and editor roles can be granted without needing additional roles in their user profile. For more information, see Order Management Application Roles
On Orckestra Commerce Cloud, stores are defined in the Order Management application. Stores have a number of fields and features contributing to their definition and operability throughout the Orckestra Commerce Cloud platform.
