Examples of application:

• Classification of the stores by regions and the subsequent assignment of the entire group of the stores to the user who manages the given region.
• You regularly publish blog post or poll to a certain group of stores. It is worth creating one group for such stores not to have to assign each store separately to every newly published poll/blog post.
• A store group can be included in the project. When you create a new store and assign it to this group, the store will be automatically displayed in the project and you will not have to add it to the project manually.
• In analyses, you can analyse the entire group of stores. If you often compare, for example, ten identical stores, a group for these stores is worth creating not to have to add individual stores separately every time.

Assigning a store group to a user

The store groups can be easily assigned to e.g. users. Among frequent applications is the creation of a store group, e.g. for a certain region, and its subsequent assignment to a certain user.

In our case, we will assign the already created store group Central Bohemia to a specific regional manager who is responsible for this area.

How to assign a store group to a user?

1. In the Users section, select the user to whom you wish the store group to be assigned.
2. Click in the Assigned Stores row.
3. In the newly appearing window, in the Groups tab select the store group that you wish to assign to the user (Central Bohemia).
