Local Group Manager - Role Overview

  • Updated

The Local Group Manager (LGM) role is designed for users who need to manage a single group or team of Buyers within your organisation's enterprise. LGMs can invite Buyers to register on VendorPanel (within their Local Group) and are responsible for managing these Buyer accounts.

Unlike Local Group Administrators, LGMs sit within their assigned local group under the 'ADMIN/MGR' section, and can only manage staff within that group. They cannot be assigned to multiple groups.

The Super Admin or a Local Group Administrator can invite a new user to register as a Local Group Manager, and you can find information on that here: Inviting New Administrators/Managers.

Or, a Buyer can be promoted to be a Local Group Manager by the Super Admin or a Local Group Administrator, see information here: Promoting Users to Managers/Administrators.

LGMs can perform the following actions:

LGMs can also directly manage Buyers within their local group. An LGM manages a Buyer if they have either invited that Buyer to register, or the Buyer was assigned to them by a Local Group Administrator. You can find information on how to view who manages each user and how the Super can update the buyer's set managed to the LGM here: Updating a Buyer's set Manager.

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.
