    Hi Robert,

    If you give the Librarian user role the ability to ‘edit_posts’, ‘manage_woocommerce’, or ‘view_admin_dashboard’, then they will have access to the dashboard still.

    Otherwise, you can also turn off the redirect with this filter: https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/master/includes/admin/class-wc-admin.php#L160. (may not be the best idea, as normal shop customers will see the admin dashboard).

    The capability ‘view_admin_dashboard’ is not listed anywhere. Is this a capability added by WooCommerce?

    The ‘edit_posts’ and ‘manage_woocommerce’ capabilities are probably not necessarily apropriate.

    OK, the ‘view_admin_dashboard’ cap. is in the new version of WooCommerce. After updating WooCommerce and adding this cap. things seem to work now.
