How do I give access to WooCommerce orders without giving full admin access?

Sometimes someone needs order visibility, not the keys to the whole website.

1. Create a new WordPress user.
2. Choose a role that supports WooCommerce order management, such as Shop Manager.
3. Avoid Administrator unless they need technical control.
4. Ask the user to log in and confirm they can see what they need.
5. Review permissions after setup.

Before you save anything, double-check the details. A tiny typo in DNS, billing, access, or tracking can create a surprisingly loud afternoon.

• Shop Manager access can manage WooCommerce settings and orders.
• Use Administrator only for trusted technical partners.
• Separate accounts make activity easier to track.

How Field Theory helps

We can walk you through this, handle it with you on a screen share, or manage the setup directly when access allows.

• Confirm the correct account or platform
• Identify the safest change to make
• Document what changed and when
• Verify the setup after it is saved
