WooCommerce Mobile App permission to create products

Hi @webwurm,

Thanks for reaching out to us. I’m happy to help you with this!

The WooCommerce mobile app comes in very handy, because the waiter can just press on “Order completed”, when the food is ready.

Yes, that sounds like a very handy use case, especially if you’re also selling your restaurant’s products online.

What he should not be able to do is create products – this is a new feature of the mobile app.
I disabled all the permissions for the user to create products – and on the webpage it works. But on the app he still can do that.

Hmm, that’s strange that the permissions apply to the web version but not the app. By default, there’s no option in WooCommerce for you to specify that a Shop Manager or Administrator cannot created products: https://woocommerce.com/posts/a-guide-to-woocommerce-user-roles-permissions-and-security/.

Are you using a plugin to set the permissions? We recommend the free User Role Editor plugin to change permissions, as explained in our guide here: https://woocommerce.com/posts/a-guide-to-woocommerce-user-roles-permissions-and-security/

If that still doesn’t work, could you please let us know which version of the WooCommerce app you’re using and whether it’s the Android or iOS app?

Hi @webwurm ,

We haven’t heard back from you for a while, so I’m going to mark this post as resolved. If you have any further questions or need additional help with the WooCommerce plugin, please start a new thread and we’ll be able to help you there. Thanks!
