# Users & Permissions

Users and Permissions refer to the people/users that can access the Back Office and what sections/permissions those users have. The merchant will be able to add additional users and limit what those users can and cannot access.\
\
This allows the merchant to delegate certain tasks like catalogue management or content management to other staff members. This frees up time for the merchant to concentrate on certain aspects of their store.

### How to Add a New User

1. Click on System
2. Select Users and Permissions
3. Enter user details
4. Select which general permissions this user is allowed
5. Select which store-specific permissions this user is allowed
6. Click Save

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.storefront.co.za/features/system/users-and-permissions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
