PrestaShop allows you to define multiple levels of responsibility for your employees. This is useful for restricting access of certain profiles to specific functionalities. Discover how to proceed!

What employee profiles are available?
By default, four profiles are ready to be used:
- SuperAdmin: this is the highest employee profile, capable of accessing everything and possessing all rights on the PrestaShop Back Office.

💡 The SuperAdmin profile cannot be deleted; however, it can be renamed. |
- Logistician: this is the profile of employees responsible for packing and shipping orders. By default, logisticians can only access orders, carriers, and stock management pages, as well as part of the catalog and customer pages.
- Translator: this is the profile of employees responsible for translating the textual content of the store. By default, they can access products and categories, CMS pages, and the translations page.
- Commercial: this is the default employee profile for the sales department. In addition to the same access rights as the translator profile, they can access client pages, modules, and the web service as well as statistics.
How to create a new profile?
Click on the "Add Profile" button at the top right of the page to create a new employee profile.
The only required field is the name of the employee profile. Ensure that you give it a unique name (for example, "accountant" or "marketing manager") and save. As soon as the profile is saved, it will appear in the list of profiles.
You will then need to assign permissions to this new profile. Please navigate to the "Permissions" page, and click on the tab of the new profile: the list of criteria will appear. By default, a new profile does not have access to any pages of the back office.
Please consult our article to learn more about the permissions related to each profile.
