What Are the Minimum Authorization Roles to Assign?

Only authorized users can access the Business Management applications. You can simplify the administration of authorization role assignment by creating an administrator group for each Commerce Server system, and authorizing that group according to the corresponding administrator roles.

The following table lists the Web services and their corresponding administrator roles. These represent the minimum number of roles to assign and the groups to authorize. You assign business users to one or more of the administrative groups based on the Business Management application they need to access.
