Assign an order approver

  • Updated

In Optimizely Configured Commerce, you can assign a user as an Order Approver in the Admin Console. You must be an Administrator to do so. See Create users in the Admin Console for information.

  1. Go to Admin Console > Administration > Website Users.
  2. Click Edit for the user who will submit orders for approval.

    If you want to add an approver to multiple users, select the checkboxes next to all the users, then click Multi-Edit. This lets you update each user, click Save and Next, and go to the next record.

  3. Ensure the user has a role for order approval (Buyer 1 or Buyer 2).
  4. Click the drop-down list for Approver and choose the desired Approver. Both the Buyer 3 and Administrator roles can be approvers.
  5. Click Save or click Done if using the Multi-Edit option.

Order Approvers receive an email notification when a customer submits an order for approval. They can also see a notification on the website when logging in after an order is sent for approval.
