Limits & Notes

  • Access Scope: LGAs only have access to the local groups they own.
  • Buyer Rights: LGAs do not automatically have Buyer rights.
    • Buyer rights must be separately assigned to the Administrator by the Super Admin (either during registration or afterward).
    • With assigned Buyer rights, the LGA inherits all capabilities of the Buyer role (e.g., creating and posting requests).
