How to access the Users page
To access the Users page, click on your photo or name in the upper-right corner and choose Users. You'll find a complete list of users, organized by group, showing their personal details, roles, and the last time they logged in.
If you're looking for a specific user, just use the search field at the top.
User roles
Setting up roles for users helps manage access to Company account. Every user role includes a set of rights that provide access to certain features and tools.
You can assign to employee one or several roles within Suplery:
Role | Description |
Account owner | Full access to the company in Suplery. There can only be one person in the company. However, this role can be transferred to another user. |
Settings and Users | Access to company setup and settings, user management, and role adjustments. |
Orders | Access to create, edit and view orders, communicate with suppliers and work with user carts. |
Inventory | Access to inventory management, product usage history, product archiving, and order viewing. |
How to assign roles to a user
Assign roles to a user at User invitation. Later, you can add additional roles or edit assigned.
Can’t assign or remove roles of specific user?
This might be because you don't have the necessary permissions. To assign or remove roles for a user, you must have both the Settings and Users role and all the roles the edited user has. These requirements are the same for any user editing.
How to change user role
To change the user role:
Open the User panel.
Check or uncheck the role.
Save changes.
Transfer company ownership to another user
The company owner holds all access rights and roles and cannot be removed from the account. Each company can have only one owner, but ownership can be transferred to another user by these steps:
Use an owner account to sign in.
Pick the user for the ownership transfer and open their profile.
Click Transfer ownership next to the checkbox.
Enter your password and click Transfer ownership to confirm. Upon this confirmation, the selected user will inherit ownership.
User groups
Arranging users into groups by department makes it easier to manage and understand your organization. It helps visualize the team structure and clarifies each person’s role in the team.
It doesn't give users special permissions, but it helps you navigate and simplifies tasks.
How to create a group
There are two options to create a user group: you can either create a group directly in Users page or create a group while creating a User invitation.
Сlick Create group in the upper right part of the screen.
In the opened group panel, give the group a name and assign members. To assign group members, click Add user to group and choose users from the list that appears.
Click Create group in the lower right corner to confirm.
How to edit or delete a group
To edit or delete a group, click on Edit near the group name in the user list. Group panel will open.
To edit a group name, type in the new name and click Save group.
To delete a group, click Delete group in the lower left corner. All users from the group will moved to the Without group.
How to assign or remove user from group
To add or remove a user from a group, you can either edit the group or user panel:
Option 1: Edit the group
This option is a more simple way to add or remove several users in a line.
Click on Edit next to the group name in the Users page to open group panel.
Click Add user to a group and choose who you want to add. Or click Delete at the end of the user's line to remove one.

Click the user you want to manage on the Users page. This will open the user panel.
