[. . . ] If you check the box, then after saving the role you will see a new link for the role appear here: Home > My Shop > Shop Configuration Pre-defined Roles: Parallels Helm has helpfully taken the most common features of a reseller and a user (based on the abilities they had in Parallels Helm 3) and given you the ability to choose these as Pre-defined roles to save you time. For instance, a Reseller will not be able to add servers to Parallels Helm, or use other administrator functionality, but they can add users underneath them, set up billing functionality, etc. Similarly, users cannot add customers but they can manage their domains and Packages. You can choose either the Reseller or User pre-defined role if you want to quickly set up an Account Role, or if you would like to micro-manage the permissions yourself, then you can instead choose Specify Permission. Specify Permission: If you would prefer to choose the precise abilities that a customer can have, then choose this button to specify permissions for this role. When you choose this option, the Available Permissions list will become active. Simply highlight the permission you want the role to have (CTRL-click to select multiple permissions) and click the >> button to move them into the Selected Permissions box. If you want to remove any permissions from the role, highlight them in the Selected Permissions box and click the << button to move them back to the Available Permissions box. 2 Once you have chosen the permissions that you require, click Save to save the Customer Account Role. Now that you have set up a Customer Account Role, you are ready to create your first customer. 10 Adding Customers to Parallels Helm Step 2.
