This article defines the Local Group Manager (LGM) role and outlines the permissions and actions they can perform within their assigned Local Group. LGMs are responsible for managing a single group or team of Buyers.
Prerequisites
The LGM role is assigned by a Super Admin or a Local Group Administrator.
Role Description
- The LGM role is designed for users who need to manage a single group or team of Buyers within the organisation's enterprise.
- LGMs can invite Buyers to register on VendorPanel - a Unimarket Company within their Local Group.
- LGMs are responsible for managing the Buyer accounts within their Local Group.
- Unlike Local Group Administrators, LGMs are positioned within their assigned local group under the ADMIN/MGR section.
- LGMs can only manage staff within their assigned group and cannot be assigned to multiple groups.
How to be Assigned the Role
- A Super Admin or a Local Group Administrator can invite a new user to register as a Local Group Manager (see: Inviting New Administrators/Managers).
- A Buyer can be promoted to be a Local Group Manager by the Super Admin or a Local Group Administrator (see: Promote a User to a Manager or Administrator).
LGM Permissions
Group Management
LGMs can perform the following actions:
- Invite new Buyers to join their local group.
- Impersonate all Buyers within their local group.
Direct Buyer Management
An LGM is considered to directly manage a Buyer if they have either invited that Buyer to register or the Buyer was assigned to them by a Local Group Administrator. For the Buyers they directly manage, LGMs can:
- View and download reports based on their activity.
- Transfer their account to another user.
- Transfer their requests to another user.
- Make them inactive.
- Remove their Buyer rights.
